Maintain your forklifts in rainy seasons
During the rainy season, how to avoid the unavoidable loss of your forklift caused by improper operation,
please pay attention to:
1. The air humidity is relatively high, and the filter element is easily blocked by the addition of humidity and dust. Please replace the air filter element in time. It is recommended to replace it every 200 hours during the rainy season. Check the condition of the filter element every shift with frequent open-air operations;
2. If the vehicle is accidentally flooded in heavy rain, please do not start the forklift in a hurry. Disconnect the starting battery cable in time, replace the hydraulic oil, antifreeze, clean the diesel tank, and try to start after the vehicle is completely dry. Or contact the local service provider for professional treatment.
