In view of the fact that many friends are still confused about the maintenance of electric forklifts, Xiaobian specially summarized the maintenance knowledge of electric forklifts, hoping to help you understand in more detail!

The maintenance of forklifts should be maintained according to the service cycle, whether it is an electric forklift or an internal combustion forklift, the correct maintenance is the key to extending the service life. The following are the routine maintenance work:

Check the liquid level and the specific gravity of the electrolyte of the battery, remove the debris on the surface of the battery Check the driving brake performance Check the directional flexibility Check the leakage of oil, water and gas in each system Check the working condition of the monitoring instrument and the voltage of the battery Check whether there is abnormal noise and overheating in each part Check whether the wheel is cracked or abnormal wear Check whether the switch, pedal, joystick and button are working properly Check whether the bolts and nuts in each part are loose or fall off, especially check whether the axle, transmission shaft and bridge bolts are loose Check the flexibility of the joystick and fill it with lubricating grease Lubricating grease is applied to each hinge point and pin sleeve

After 50 hours of work, in addition to completing routine maintenance, the following maintenance work is required:
Replace the hydraulic oil filter Check the mast clearance and chain tension Replace the variable speed transmission Replenish the specific gravity of the battery electrolyte Check whether the electronic control joint is loose Check the single voltage and the overall voltage Charge the battery equally
After 250 hours of service, the following maintenance work is required:

Check the specific gravity of the battery group, electrolyte and electrolyte to remove battery fouling Check the oil level of the drive axle and the oil level of the hydraulic oil, if it is insufficient, add Check and replenish the brake fluid, check the braking performance and tilt cylinder Check whether the tire pressure meets the requirements Replace the new oil in the gearbox Replace the hydraulic transmission oil filter Check the tightening of bolts and nuts in each part Check the gap of the mast roller and the tension of the chain Replenish the distilled water of the battery and check the specific gravity of the battery electrolyte
After 500 hours of service, the following maintenance work is required:

Check the front and rear drive axles, change the gear oil Clean the brake master cylinder and sub-cylinder, change the brake fluid Check the wear of the brake hub and brake pads Check whether there is abnormal sound or overheating in each part Check the limit of the steering axle to ensure the normal rotation of the steering tires at all angles Confirm the tightening of the axle and wheel bolts Check the fastening bolts and nuts of the gearbox and motor Replenish the distilled water of the battery and check the specific gravity of the battery electrolyte

The above is a brief introduction to the maintenance work of electric forklifts, only the correct maintenance work can ensure the better operation of electric forklifts and improve work efficiency.
