Thorough and expert servicing is one of the most important requirements for the safe

operation of the industrial truck. Failure to perform regular servicing can lead to truck

failure and poses a potential hazard to personnel and equipment.

The service intervals stated are based on single shift operation under normal

operating conditions. They must be reduced accordingly if the truck is to be used in

conditions of extreme dust, temperature fluctuations or multiple shifts.

The following maintenance checklist states the tasks and intervals after which they

should be carried out. Maintenance intervals are defined as:

W = Every 50 service hours, at least weekly

A = Every 500 operating hours

B = Every 1000 operating hours, or at least annually

C = Every 2000 operating hours, or at least annually

W service intervals are to be performed by the customer.

In the run-in period - after approx. 100 service hours - or after repair work, the owner

must check the wheel nuts/bolts and re-tighten if necessary.
