We have mentioned several times before about the core component of electric forklift's power output - the battery. The quality of batteries directly determines the service life of electric forklifts. So, how can we maximize the good use of batteries?
Many electric forklifts are not damaged due to hydraulic systems or transmission parts such as bearings. After all, as long as there is no long-term serious overload problem, these systems will not be damaged. However, the power system is different. Compared to other parts, it is much more delicate. Therefore, we need to pay attention to the battery from these aspects.
Firstly, electric forklifts should not be charged when the battery is severely low, as this can cause significant damage to the battery itself. Charging is necessary when the battery level is below about 20%. It is not recommended to completely reset the battery and automatically shut down before charging.
Secondly, try to fully charge the battery at once and do not unplug it halfway. This repeated power-off charging is extremely unfriendly to the battery, as it not only seriously shortens its lifespan but also poses a risk of burning out the motor.
Thirdly, placing an electric forklift in a dark and humid environment not only harms the body of the forklift, but also has a more serious impact on the battery, and may even result in direct scrapping.
These three situations can cause significant damage to the battery, which can directly affect the normal use of the electric forklift. Therefore, when using an electric forklift, especially when charging, it is important to pay attention to these situations.
