Keep Your Fleet Rolling
The condition of your forklift tires directly affects its performance. Forklift tires are at risk of damage or simply wearing out from regular use. It may be easy to look at a functioning tire and say, “It seems like it works to me,” but you may be taking a serious risk by ignoring the signs that tires should be retired from service. It is crucial to replace tires after they show significant wear or sustain any notable damage, as these issues can lead to:
- Fatigue and job stress
- Stability issues
- Engine and transmission leaks
- Air tire blowing
- Facility damage
- Accelerated fork heel wear
- Loads can be compromised
