Small adjustments can have a big impact

摘要

Multiple lift truck technologies and components are available that can help decrease the frequency of maintenance issues, enhance durability and improve fleet productivity. According to Joe Dennison, product manager at Hyster Company, these include sealed electric connectors, O-ring face seal hydraulic fittings, and oil-cooled wet disc brakes. Wiring and connections are a leading cause of service calls on all types of off-road materials handling equipment, Dennison says. Sealed electric connectors eliminate exposure to moisture, dirt and contaminants, preventing corrosion on the connections. For industries where lift trucks need to be cleaned frequently, sealed connections help protect critical parts during washes and can be connected and reconnected with no deformation, improv inq serviceability.
