How to maintain the wheels of hydraulic forklifts properly

The role of wheels in hydraulic forklifts cannot be ignored. The smooth movement of the entire hydraulic forklift is closely related to the integrity of the wheels. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain the wheels of hydraulic forklifts regularly. So, how should we do it specifically?

1、 When operating a hydraulic forklift, it is advisable to avoid working on rough or bumpy roads to prevent unnecessary wear and tear on the wheels. Even on flat roads, attention should be paid to avoiding substances such as sand, gravel, and debris that may cause wear and tear on the wheels, to ensure a clean working environment.


2、 Maintaining cleanliness between the casters and the connecting bearings is an important part of maintenance work. Due to the dependence of the casters on bearing connections during operation, in order to ensure their normal rotation, it is necessary to regularly inspect and remove any tangled ropes, debris, and attached sludge and other pollutants to ensure the cleanliness of the bearing parts.


3、 Properly controlling the weight of goods during transportation is another important aspect of protecting the wheels. Different models of hydraulic forklifts have their own load limits, and operators must strictly follow the prescribed load standards for operation, and overloading is strictly prohibited. Excessive load may cause damage to the casters due to excessive force.


In the daily use of hydraulic forklifts, it is essential to pay attention to the protection of the wheels. The three maintenance requirements mentioned above should be strictly followed in order to ensure the safety and service life of the wheels, and thus ensure the stable operation and work efficiency of the entire hydraulic forklift.
