your forklift
• Here are some tips on how you can enhance the battery life of your forklift.

4. WORK IN THE DAY, CHARGE IN THE NIGHT
 Your forklift will go through a rigorous work load throughout the day and this will
result in the draining of your battery. This is a known fact to manufacturers that
forklift batteries are designed in a way to last throughout the day, when 100%
charged.
 Drain your batter completely to a zero and charge it to a 100% in the night, this
will boost your forklift’s battery life.
 If your battery depletes at a rapid pace even after being 100% charged then there
is an issue - that’s needs to be fixed- with your battery or the machine

5. ONLY CHARGE FOR LONG HOURS
 Most battery powered forklifts need to be charged for a minimum of 8 hours for
them to attain a 100% charge and work profusely without failing mid-way. It isn’t
advisable to charge the forklift for short intervals and then use it.
 This drains the battery and affects the performance of the forklift overall. It will
also result in the inefficiency in the tasks performed by the forklift.

6. CHARGE IN A COOL, DRY PLACE
 Your battery would be at risk if it has to go through excessive oxidation and rust. If
there is a layer of rust on your battery then it can cause a serious threat to your
battery and also the forklift to some extent.
 Make sure you charge your batter in a cool, dry place to avoid the existence of
oxidation and rust. Make sure this place also has plenty of ventilation to validate
sufficient airflow.

7. MAINTAIN ON A REGULAR BASIS
 Regular maintenance and servicing of your forklift and its parts is the absolute
key to ensure a strong battery life. This is essential to ensure that your forklift has
a long life; a rapid deterioration in the life of the battery in a short time could affect
the forklift on a major level.
 The maintenance not only enhances the life of the forklift but also helps you keep
an eye on the leaks, erosion and the rust.

8. These tips will help you in maintaining the battery of your forklift well and giving it
a much needed healthy life. In turn, resulting in a stronger life of the forklift as
well.
