Forklift Repair and Maintenance Services
Forklifts and pallet trucks or hand trucks have to be in good working condition so as to transport bulk materials safely at ports, warehouses, construction sites and shipping docks. The capital investment of your company will really serve you well in the long term if you have reliable forklift repair and maintenance services offering inspection, repair, overhaul and maintenance.
To provide forklift maintenance and repair services, companies have the option to train their employees in house. Especially those companies which have fleets of forklifts in large operations. The machine manufacturer normally provides excellent documentation, such as repair manuals, on-line guides, and CDs, to guide both service engineers and mechanics. The right documentation and set of tools are all you need for fixing and diagnosing minor problems and for regular maintenance. Common issues which require occasional addressing consist of those related to power systems, emission and fuel systems, hydraulics, transmissions, brakes and diesel engines. If the problems are more complicated or require specialized knowledge, dealers or suppliers can usually be depended upon to offer assistance from authorized service repair centers. Most repair centers are very responsive to calls and provide emergency 24-hour service and diagnostic testing.
Other aspects of forklifts that might require maintenance and repair include levels of fluids, axles and tires, lights, alarms or horns, carriage and gauges and instruments. Forklift attachments also require maintenance, like roll and barrel clamps, rotators, sideshifters, drum handlers and man baskets.
