Forklift Service – PM services and inspection in Montreal

We offer preventive maintenance (PM) services and inspections for material handling equipment, particularly forklifts.

Every industrial vehicle requires regular maintenance, and forklifts are no exception. Depending on usage, a forklift should receive PM services at least every six months. However, if your forklift is in constant daily use, it’s essential to schedule maintenance on a monthly basis.

For propane forklifts, our service includes checking all electrical wiring and hydraulic systems, as well as changing the air and oil filters and engine oil. Additionally, forklifts need regular greasing at various points, a task best performed by a qualified mechanic to ensure proper care.

For electric forklifts, we inspect the wiring system, battery quality, and connectors. We also clean all contactors and apply grease to all necessary points.

Hydraulic oil should be changed every 2,000 hours of operation, along with the filters.

During each check-up, we also inspect the overall condition of the forklift, including the body for any damage, and test the lights, horn, backup alarm, strobe light, and other essential components.

Other critical aspects that require professional attention include the forks, tires, radiator, and more.

Investing in regular PM services not only helps you save money in the long run but also ensures that your forklift remains in safe and optimal condition for use.
