In recent years, the demand for low-carbon and high-efficiency logistics equipment keeps growing across the material handling industry, and electric forklifts have become one of the most widely applied core handling tools in various work scenarios. Many frontline operators and equipment managers still have space to improve their cognition of correct usage and scientific maintenance of this type of equipment.

Core Performance Characteristics of Modern Electric Forklifts

Different from traditional internal combustion powered handling equipment, modern electric forklifts adopt electric drive systems, which produce almost no tail gas during operation. The overall running noise level is relatively lower, and the power output curve is more stable, making them suitable for enclosed factory zones, ordinary warehouse areas, cold storage zones and other scenarios with strict requirements for environmental indicators. The endurance performance of mainstream products can meet the daily work demands of most medium and low intensity operation scenarios, and the energy consumption cost shows obvious advantages compared with traditional fuel powered handling equipment.

Standard Daily Operation Specifications

Operators need to complete corresponding professional skill training before they officially take up the post. Before starting each work shift, operators need to walk around the whole equipment to check the vehicle appearance, braking system, power display and lifting chain status. They can only start the equipment after confirming the operation passage is free of obstacles and no irrelevant personnel stay in the surrounding area. During the operation process, operators need to control the driving speed, give out prompt honking in advance when entering turning sections or narrow aisles, and control the lifting height of forks to avoid sheltering the driving sight by loaded goods.

Routine Maintenance and Care Notes

After finishing daily work, operators should park the equipment in the designated charging area and replenish power in time, and it is not recommended to conduct charging until the power is completely exhausted. Workers need to clean the accumulated dust on the surface of heat dissipation components and residual sundries in the gap of forks regularly, and check the sensitivity of braking system and the sealing performance of hydraulic lifting system at fixed intervals. If minor abnormal problems are found, workers should troubleshoot and handle them in time, and avoid long time operation with hidden faults.
