Preventative Maintenance
All trucks, trailers, and other industrial equipment have in one thing in common; they need occasional tune-ups to ensure optimal running condition and avoid breakdowns. Our highly trained team will periodically check all equipment components to maximize their life expectancy and keep the equipment in top working order.
At Royal Forklift, we also offer a variety of maintenance options that will keep your fleet in top shape, including periodic preventative maintenance (PM) programs that are customized to fit your schedule and fleet size.
Tractor Trailer Maintenance Tips
Few vehicles endure more abuse than trucks. Despite their durability, however, they need ongoing maintenance to keep their engines humming and brakes grabbing. Here are five things that need your attention:
- Brake wear and failure. Brake failure can potentially have catastrophic results. We recommend having them inspected during every oil change.
- Watch for engine problems. A decrease in power, excessive smoking, and loss of oil pressure are symptoms of an unhealthy engine. Have problems diagnosed and repaired by the experts at Royal Forklift.
- Maintain lubrication. Keep your truck lubed, using only high-quality grease on the suspension, steering, and drivetrain. Failing to do this could lead to early wear and costly breakdowns.
- Properly inflate tires. Underinflated tires reduce fuel efficiency, and overinflated tires are a safety risk because they are more prone to blowouts or premature tread wear. Keeping the tires properly inflated can save on fuel bills.
- Replace worn belts. Engine belts drive everything from the alternator to the air-conditioning compressor. Get them checked about every 25,000 miles and plan to replace them at around 50,000 miles to avoid serious harm to the engine.
