Service or Product Solutions, Worn Tires, Abuse Items

Not like your personal vehicle, lift trucks are not outfitted with suspension springs which provide added cushioning. Hence, it is very vital to replace chunked tires or worn tires which cause jarring impacts to the axle components, the operator, and load and to the wheel.



To guarantee maximum lift truck performance, there are actually a lot of applications which rely upon utilizing proper tires. You can simply request an application survey from your local Cat forklift dealer, in order to ensure that your material handling machinery has the proper tires. It is essential not to forget that operating with worn forklift tires can result in premature wear to the bottom of the forks. Worn forks can greatly jeopardize the lift truck's ability to lift. This kind of situation creates a dangerous and awfully unsafe work surrounding.



It is time to change the tines, when the fork's heel is worn more than 10 percent. Routine tine inspections are required in order to make sure that your machinery is safely functioning and that your machine is functioning with safe forks. These inspections are essential to the safety of your operators as well as anybody else working near the machine.



Unfortunately, many forklift operators have taken up the bad habit of riding the inching pedal. This could cause costly damage to the vehicle's transmission. In order to avoid major component failure from happening, only use the inching pedal when you are approaching a rack and wish to apply the brakes while the engine is revving. This enables the hydraulics to function at full speed. The brake pedal is situated in the middle and is utilized to regularly stop the lift truck when the hydraulics is not being used.
