Proper and standardized maintenance is the core premise to keep BYD lithium forklift running stably in long-term warehousing, manufacturing, port and logistics scenarios, which can effectively reduce unexpected downtime, lower long-term operation cost, and prolong the overall service life of the equipment.

The first essential part of maintenance is the daily pre-shift check before each operation. Operators need to walk around the whole equipment to check if there is obvious collision damage on the body shell, confirm the tire wear degree and proper tire pressure, no foreign objects stuck in the tread gap. Next, operators need to test the flexibility of the lifting mast and fork, check if there is abnormal jamming or noise during ascending and descending process. They also need to verify the brake sensitivity, operation handle feedback, and all indicator light status on the instrument panel, to make sure no hidden safety risk exists before formal operation.

The second critical maintenance module is the daily care of the built-in lithium battery. Users should avoid over-discharging the battery to extremely low level in daily use, and use the matched special charger for charging. It is necessary to keep the battery surface clean and dry, wipe off accumulated dust and water stain on the shell regularly, check if the connection plug is in firm contact without looseness or corrosion. It is not recommended to place the lithium forklift in extreme high temperature or severe low temperature environment for long time, which will avoid unnecessary damage to the battery activity.

Thirdly, users need to arrange regular scheduled full inspection according to the actual operation frequency. It is recommended to conduct a comprehensive inspection after every 200 hours of operation, to check the sealing condition of the hydraulic system, confirm no oil leakage at each oil pipe joint, check if all body fasteners are in tight state, inspect the outer insulation of the circuit lines for wear and aging, and clean the dust on the motor heat dissipation filter screen to guarantee good heat dissipation performance.

For long-term storage scenario, users should keep the battery charge level between 50% to 70% before idle placement, park the forklift in dry, ventilated and shade area, and move the equipment for short distance at least once a month to lubricate the transmission components, avoid part rust caused by long-term static state.
