  If your Linde Forklifts truck doesn't start, several issues could be the cause. First, check if the battery is discharged and charge or replace it if necessary. Ensure all electrical connections are tight, especially at the battery terminals, and coat them with non-acidic grease. Verify that the overhead guard is correctly locked. Finally, inspect the fuses and replace any that are blown.

How to troubleshoot abnormal noise in Linde E 20-02 Forklifts?
- A
  Anne HoganAug 12, 2025
  Abnormal noise in your Linde Forklifts can stem from several causes. Start by checking the suction filter for restrictions and clean or replace it. Inspect suction hoses for leaks, and if oil foams, tighten the hose connections. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the hydraulic pump may be damaged, or seals may be faulty, leading to air intake, in which case you should have it inspected by your authorised distributor. Also, ensure you're using the correct oil viscosity and that the oil level in the tank is adequate; change the oil and replenish if needed.

Why is there no or too low pressure in the Linde E 20-02 Forklifts system?
- C
  Colton PageAug 20, 2025
  If you're experiencing no or low pressure in your Linde Forklifts system, several factors could be responsible. Check for pump suction faults, which may be noisy, and change or replenish the oil. Pump failure, pressure valve issues (such as valves not closing or valve seat damage) can also be the cause, and you should have it repaired by distributor’s mechanic. Inspect the pipeline for breaks or leaks, replacing the pipe or tightening connections as necessary. Also, using oil with low viscosity can lead to high leakage losses, so change the oil and use the specified viscosity.

What causes the hydraulic oil temperature to be too high in Linde E 20-02 Forklifts?
- P
  Patrick PorterAug 28, 2025
  High hydraulic oil temperature in your Linde Forklifts can be caused by pump failure or leaking valves, in which case you should have it repaired by a workshop. Also, check the oil level and replenish if it is too low.
