This section contains a Maintenance Schedule and
instructions for maintenance and inspection.
The Maintenance Schedule has time intervals for
inspection, lubrication, and maintenance of your lift
truck. Service intervals are provided in both operating
hours recorded on lift truck hourmeter and in calendar
time. Recommendation is to use the interval that
comes first.
Recommendations for time intervals provided is for
eight hours of operation per day. Time intervals must
be decreased from recommendations in Maintenance
Schedule for the following conditions:
•
Lift truck is used more than eight hours per day.
•
Lift truck must work in dirty operating conditions.
•
Poor ground conditions.
•
Intensive usage at high performance levels or
other abnormal conditions will require more
frequent servicing.
Your dealer for Yale lift trucks has equipment and
trained service personnel to do a complete program of
inspection, lubrication, and maintenance. A regular
program of inspection, lubrication, and maintenance
will help your lift truck provide more efficient
performance and operate for a longer period of time.
Some users have service personnel and equipment to
do inspection, lubrication, and maintenance shown in
Maintenance Schedule. Service manuals are available
from your dealer for Yale lift trucks to help users who
do their own maintenance.

HOW TO MOVE DISABLED LIFT TRUCK
How to Tow Lift Truck
WARNING
Use extra caution when towing a lift truck if any of
the following conditions exist:
•
Brakes do not operate correctly.
•
Steering does not operate correctly.
•
Tires are damaged.
•
Traction conditions are bad.
•
The lift truck must be towed on a slope.
If the engine cannot run, there is no power
available for the hydraulic steering system and the
service brakes. This condition can make the lift
truck difficult to steer and stop. If the lift truck
uses power from the engine to help apply the
brakes, the application of the brakes will be more
difficult. Poor traction can cause the disabled lift
truck or towing vehicle to slide. A slope will also
make the lift truck more difficult to stop.
Never lift and move a disabled lift truck unless the
disabled lift truck MUST be moved and cannot be
towed. A lift truck used to move a disabled lift
truck MUST have a capacity rating equal to or
greater than the weight of the disabled lift truck.
The capacity of the lift truck used to move a
disabled lift truck must have a load center equal to
half the width of the disabled lift truck. See the
Nameplate of the disabled lift truck for the
approximate total weight. The forks must extend
the full width of the disabled lift truck. Put the
weight center of the disabled lift truck on load
center of the forks. Be careful to not damage the
underside of the lift truck.
1. The towed lift truck must have an operator.
2. Tow truck slowly.
