Work and Head Lamps
OSHA places specific standards on directional lighting on the forklift if the normal lights are less than 2 lumens per square foot. This makes adequate lighting a safety requirement at night time or inside of darkened buildings.
Yale provides optional lighting to meet the applications requirements of every customer. These options include halogen lighting options and LED options which are both designed in order to resist damaging effects of shock, vibration and weather, while increasing visibility in low ambient light environments.
Operator Restraint Systems
In the event of a lift truck tip over, an operator restraint system could help the operator keep their torso and head in the confines of the lift truck frame and overhead guard. Using an operator restraint system properly can greatly lessen the chance of serious injury from happening. Each one of the newer Yale lift trucks consists of an Anti-Cinch Seat Belt and Hip Restraints as part of their standard equipment. Yale is proud to provide operator restraint systems that could be retrofitted into many older Yale lift trucks.
Frequent inspections can greatly help to lessen forklift repairs and save you numerous amounts of money eventually. The standing joke within the industry is a forklift technician coining the saying "Pay me now, or pay me later," since it normally costs more to procrastinate when it comes to forklifts. Like for example, the minor fixes that go unrepaired could later turn into costly repairs.
Tilt Cylinders
If they are left unchecked, oil leaks are a very serious concerns. On a regular basis, the machine must be checked for damage and/or oil leaks. Oil leaks can lead to extremely dangerous uncontrolled movement of the mast. Whether the leaks are outside or inside the cylinder, the end result can result in loss of vital fluid and cylinder drift. When damage or leaks are detected, you normally will have to replace the seals or the complete cylinder assembly.
Chains
Be sure to pay attention as you don't want mast lift chains to stretch beyond acceptable limits. Watch carefully for any signs of wear and tear or damage. Frequently check a chain wear gauge so as to monitor the wear. If the chain is worn beyond 2% or rusted, you have to replace the chain. Following these tips would help keep your equipment functioning optimally.
Mast
The mast has to be moving smoothly down and up when utilizing the lift control lever. Be sure to check to see if the mast is tilting forwards and backwards in a smooth way. You might need to lubricate the mast strip sliding surfaces if the sliding surfaces are binding. Lubricate their fittings too, as there is a fitting located on both sides of the inner mast. The lift bracket side rollers are one more lubrication spot.
Forks
Check the forks and check for wear, cracks and damage. It is important to remember that worn or cracked forks can possibly fail without any warning. Of course, any damaged fork means immediately taking the truck out of service. If the cracks are deeper than just on the surface, they have to be replaced because they really can't be safely fixed.
