Forklift Lubrication Maintenance
Lubrication refers to applying lubricating oil or grease between the moving parts of a machine, with the main purposes as follows:
1. Reducing friction
Preventing direct hard contact between parts to reduce wear and tear.
2. Extending equipment service life
Less wear means parts can be used for a longer time.
3. Lowering energy consumption
With less friction, the machine becomes more energy-efficient and requires less effort to operate.
4. Dissipating heat and reducing temperature
Lubricants can carry away the heat generated by friction, preventing the machine from overheating.
5. Preventing rust and corrosion
Protecting metal surfaces from rusting and chemical damage.
6. Cleaning and sealing
Removing dirt and preventing dust and moisture from entering the interior of the machine.
7. Damping vibrations and reducing noise
Making the machine run more smoothly and quietly.
8. Reducing failures and improving safety
Good lubrication makes the machine more reliable and less prone to accidents.
