Two common reasons for scrapping manual forklifts

Scrapping of manual forklifts is a common situation in factory workshops. Scrapped forklifts exhibit varying degrees and types of damage, so how are their scrapping generally caused?

The first scenario is that severe overloading can lead to damage to the hydraulic system of the manual forklift. The consequence of the damage is that the lifting of the cargo fork cannot be controlled by pressing the handle, which directly leads to the loss of lifting capacity of the manual forklift and the inability to properly cooperate with the pallet for transportation work.

In the second case, severe impact and collision have caused deformation of the fork, which has a high probability of locking the casters of the manual forklift, causing it to be unable to move normally. Moreover, this deformation is difficult to recover through external forces, making it impossible for the manual forklift to complete the transfer work.

The scrapping of manual forklifts in factory workshops is mostly caused by these two situations, so we must pay attention to the rated load of manual forklifts during use. At the same time, we must use manual forklifts regularly and drive slowly to avoid collisions.
