Transmon Fleet Management System Enforces Daily, Rigorous Checks on New & Reconditioned Forklifts – Part 2

Reconditioned Forklifts

Daily checks on reconditioned forklifts alert operators to small issues before they worsen.

It is an important safety precaution to check reconditioned forklifts and even new forklifts for malfunctions before operating the units at the beginning of each shift. A daily check ensures that all the lift trucks are in proper working order before they are used.

A daily check is also necessary in the proper care and maintenance of lift trucks. By performing daily checks, forklift operators can immediately spot minor glitches and deal with any issues before they become worse. By dealing with problems at an early stage, businesses can minimize repair and maintenance costs of their new and reconditioned forklifts.

While daily checks can delay the time before a lift truck can be used, forklift operators should view the situation from a larger perspective. In the long run, daily forklift checks speed up work and increase workplace productivity by alerting the crew to small problems that can develop into serious issues that require lengthy and costly repairs if not addressed right away.
