5 Maintenance
General information
General information
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 may be performed
only by qualified persons authorised by the
manufacturer. You can agree to have this
work performed on the basis of a maintenance
contract with your authorised dealer.
If you wish to perform this work yourself, we
recommend having at least the first three cus-
tomer service checks carried out by the
dealer’s service technician in the presence
of your workshop representative so your own
workshop staff can be instructed accordingly.
Whenever performing main
tenance, the
forklift truck should be p
arked on a flat surface
and secured so that it cann
ot roll away. The
engine must be switched o
ff and the ignition
key removed.
When working with the fork carriage and/or
lift mast raised, make sure they are secured
against accidental dropping.
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 pa
rticular attachment or
conversion, should be
made to your forklift
truck without the manu
facturer’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 mainten-
ance work and trap staff.
For this reason, both doors must be opened and
secured in place during servicing.
CAUTION
The truck must always be properly labelled.
Missing or damaged identification plates and/or ad-
hesive labels must be replaced. For the warehouse
or order number, please consult the spare parts
catalogue.
ENVIRONMENT NOTE
Observe information regarding working with
consumables.
NOTE
When using forklift trucks in extreme condi-
tions (e.g. extreme heat or cold, high levels
of dust etc.), the time periods specified in the
maintenance overview must be reduced ac-
cordingly.
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 more difficult conditions we
recommend shorter intervals. Please contact
your authorised dealer.
