Why Your Forklifts Should Never Miss Transmission Service

Why Your Forklifts Should Never Miss Transmission Service

1.    It will cost you more to repair a broken transmission than to have it maintained at the prescribed intervals.

2.    Dirty or contaminated transmission oil could result in damage to clutch packs, seals, and bearings. Which jeopardizes the performance of more components in your lift truck.

3.    Broken or worn seals can result in oil leaking into operating environment.
4.    Numbers two and three then become safety issues, posing hazardous threats to your operators and compromising your responsibility to the environment.

5.    You don’t want an OSHA citation. “Any powered industrial truck not in safe operating condition shall be removed from service. All repairs shall be made by authorized personnel. [29 CFR 1910.178(q)(1)]” 


Eliminate downtime and save on repair costs by keeping your lift trucks up to speed. SCMH’s maintenance specials are designed to keep your equipment ready for uptime.
