Proper daily operation and standardized regular maintenance are core premises to keep BYD electric forklifts in good working condition and extend their total service life, which also helps reduce overall logistics equipment operation cost for enterprises.

First, form the habit of standard operation in daily use. Operators need to receive professional pre-job training before they officially drive the equipment, strictly follow the rated load capacity requirements in the operation manual, avoid long-term overloading that will cause extra load to the walking motor, hydraulic system and tire components. Do not carry out violent operation behaviors including sudden acceleration, emergency braking and sharp turning under non-emergency scenarios, to reduce unnecessary impact wear of transmission components. Before each shift of operation, operators need to complete a quick walk-around inspection, check the braking sensitivity, tire wear status, fork deformation condition and light function, and timely find hidden troubles in early stage. Avoid leaving the electric forklift exposed to direct strong sunlight, heavy rain or severe low temperature environment for a long time when not in use, to prevent premature aging of the shell, circuit and sealing components.

Second, do a good job in regular maintenance of the power system. Use the matched regular charging equipment for charging work, avoid over-discharging the battery to a too low level, it is recommended to arrange supplementary charging when the remaining power is around 20%. Do not keep the forklift in a power-deficit state for more than 7 consecutive days when it is idle for a long time. Check the fastening status of the battery connectors regularly, clear the accumulated dust on the surface of the battery pack and the heat dissipation holes, to avoid poor contact and abnormal heat generation.

Third, implement scheduled routine upkeep according to official specification. Inspect the hydraulic oil level and sealing performance of the lifting system at fixed intervals, top up or replace the hydraulic oil that does not meet the use standard in time, to avoid abnormal wear of the hydraulic cylinder and seal rings. Check the operating noise and heat dissipation effect of the walking motor and driving parts regularly, clean up the accumulated sundries and broken debris stuck in the gaps of moving components, to reduce the abrasion of relative moving parts. When replacing vulnerable spare parts, choose parts that fully meet the parameter requirements of the original equipment, do not use unqualified alternative parts to avoid extra damage to the whole machine.

Insisting on the above operation and maintenance specifications can effectively reduce the equipment failure rate, improve the operation efficiency, and greatly extend the total service life of the electric forklift.
