3 Maintenance and service
Thorough and expert servicing is one of the most important preconditions for safe
operation of the fork-lift truck. The neglect of regular servicing intervals can lead to
fork-lift failure and constitutes a potential hazard to personnel and operation.
m
The indicated servicing intervals are based on single-shift operation under normal
operating conditions. For applications in dusty environments, or involving large tem-
perature fluctuations or multiple-shift operation, the servicing intervals must be shor-
tened accordingly.
The following servicing checklist indicates the operations to be performed and the re-
spective intervals to be observed. The following maintenance intervals are defined:
W1 = Every 50 operating hours, but at least once per week
M3 = Every 500 operating hours, but at least every 3 months
M6 = Every 1000 operating hours, but at least every 6 months
M12 = Every 2000 operating hours, but at least every 12 months
In the running-in phase of the truck, the following additional operations have to be car-
ried out:
After the first 100 operating hours:
– Check the wheel nuts for security and retighten, if required.
– Check the hydraulic connections for leaks and retighten, if required.
After the first 500 operating hours:
– Change the hydraulic oil and hydraulic oil filter.
