Planned
Maintenance
Intervals
Operating
conditions
Time intervals between maintenances
are
largely determined
by
operating
conditions.
For
example, operation
in
sandy, dusty locations requires shorter
maintenance intervals than operation
in
clean warehouses.
The
indicated
in-
tervals
are
intended
for
normal opera-
tion.
To
allow better understanding
of
this aspect,
the
following clarification
should
be
made:
NORMAL
OPERATION:
Basically, eight-hour material handling,
mostly
in
buildings
or in the
open air.
SEVERE
OPERATION:
Prolonged operating hours
or
constant
usage.
EXTREME
OPERATION:
1.
In
sandy
or
dusty locations, i.e.
ce-
ment plant, lumber
or
flour
mills,
coal dust
or
stone crushing sites.
2.
High-temperature locations, i.e.
steel mills, foundries, etc.
3.
Sudden temperature changes (con-
stant trips from buildings into
the
open
air), e.g. refrigeration plant.
If
your
fork-lift
truck
is
used
in
extreme
operating
conditions,
you
must
shorten
the
maintenance intervals
ac-
cordingly.
Ensure
operational
safety
