Caterpillar Diesel Forklifts Long Beach

The kind of vehicle normally found within factories, warehouses and different work sites where moving heavy materials from one location to another is required is referred to as a forklift. The mast is the mechanism located on the front of the forklift which hydraulically lifts and lowers the load. The "cat" is the protected area where the forklift driver sits.



Forklifts can carry loads that weigh between one to five tons. Some types could be used to raise shipping containers and loads which are much heavier.



The tires of a forklift should be checked and maintained regularly. The kinds of tires on different forklifts differ according to factors like for instance ground surfaces, frequency of use and weight of the loads. Each and every forklift operator must have access to replacement tires, a forklift jack and tire press.



Tire Maintenance Instructions

You must regularly check the tires. Watch for indications of wear and damage to the tires. If the wear on the tire exceeds 40%, it must be replaced.



When purchasing tires, make certain that you are buying the correct type - polyurethane, solid or pneumatic.



When the tire needs replacing, position the forklift jack under the tire and raise the forklift high enough that you can change the tires easily.



To remove the damaged tire, pull the tire from the rim utilizing the tire press. Install the new tire and secure it properly. If you are changing more than one tire and you only have one jack, lower the forklift, then reposition the jack at the next tire.



A repair company can provide on-site tire repair. If the tire is extremely large for both in-house and mobile tire presses, the tire that is damaged would have to be transported to a shop that has a stationary tire press.
