If your forklift requires professional repair, you will begin to notice one or more of the following signs, including:

• Unusual noises: Grinding, squealing, or knocking sounds could indicate mechanical or hydraulic issues.
• Fluid leaks: Puddles under your forklift are a clear warning sign of possible brake, hydraulic, or transmission problems.
• Reduced performance: Sluggish acceleration, jerky movements, or difficulty lifting loads can signal underlying faults.
• Warning lights: Never ignore dashboard lights – they are designed to warn you of issues before they become more serious.
• Inconsistent braking: Soft, unresponsive, or overly sensitive brakes are a safety hazard and should be inspected immediately.
• Excessive smoke or emissions: Visible smoke could mean an engine problem or a clogged exhaust system.
• Battery draining quickly: If the battery of your electric forklift doesn’t last as long as it once did, this may point to an electrical issue or battery degradation.

If any of the above signs sound familiar, don’t wait for a breakdown. What could be a timely repair can prevent more costly damage and disruption to your operations.
