Food, shelter, clothing, proper hygiene, medical and
dental check-ups are what enables a person to live by a certain standard.
Proper nourishment, rest, and care are what allow the human body to perform at
its best. Shouldn’t we afford our warehouse equipment the same?
As warehouse managers, business owners, lift truck
operators, we invested a lot in acquiring our forklift.
To have it perform to its potential and to extend its length of use, we must
provide it with proper nourishment, rest, and care.
How long has it been since its last oil, filter, and
fluid change?
For electric lift trucks, do you have enough batteries to
alternate between?
When did you last have your forklift serviced?
Is it on a regular maintenance schedule as prescribed by
its manual?
Have you checked the tires recently?
Are its braking systems up to standards?
For as low as $60, you can put your forklifts (pallet
jack starts at $60.00) under Southern California Material Handling’s Planned
Maintenance Program. This is an exclusive offer for new contracts. Call

Don’t wait until your equipment flatlines on you. Care
for it as you would your own body. After all living is not enough, in the end,
with optimum productivity; we should all aim to thrive.
