5 Maintenance
General remarks
General remarks
Your forklift truck will only remain in a state
ready for use at all times if you perform a small
number of maintenance and inspection tasks
according to the information in the registration
document for the industrial truck and the data
or instructions in the operating manual at
regular intervals. Servicing should be carried
out only by qualified staff authorised by Linde.
You can agree performance of this work on the
basis of a maintenance agreement concluded
with your authorised Linde dealer.
If you wish to perform this work yourself, we
recommend having at least the first 3 customer
service checks carried out by the dealer’s ser-
vice technician in the presence of your work-
shop representative so your own workshop
staff can be instructed accordingly.
Whenever performing mainte
nance, the
forklift truck should be par
kedonaflatsurface
and secured so that it cannot
roll away. The
engine should be switched o
ff and the ignition
key removed.
If work is to be performed with the fork carriage
and/or lift mast lifted, they must be secured to
prevent them from accidentally sinking down.
Whenever work is carried out at the front of the
forklift truck, the lift mast must be secured to
prevent it tilting backwards.
No modifications, in partic
ular attachment or
conversion, should be made t
o your forklift
truck without the manufactu
rer’s approval.
All servicing work on the forklift truck should be
followed by a functional check and a test run.
WARNING
Any side doors fitted could fall shut during mainte-
nance and trap staff.
For this reason, both doors should be opened and
secured in place during servicing.
CAUTION
The forklift truck must always display the proper
signs/labels/plates.
Missing or damaged rating plates and/or adhesive
labels must be replaced. Warehouse or order No.

ENVIRONMENT NOTE
Observe information regarding working with
consumables.
NOTE
When using the truck in extreme conditions
(e.g. B. extreme heat or cold, high levels
of dust formation etc.), the periods of time
indicated in the maintenance overview should
be reduced appropriately.
Maintenance intervals
Under certain conditions, there is the possibil-
ity of changing the intervals of some service
operations listed in the maintenance overview.
Please use the prescribed consumables, en-
gine oil and coolant. The qualities required
in this regard are described in the section
"Recommendations for consumables". The
inspection and maintenance intervals depend
on the operating and application conditions
of the truck. For heavy-duty conditions we
recommend shorter intervals. Please contact
your authorised dealer.
