Wear Components & Forecasting
- Record tread depth and predict replacement date
- Measure fork heel wear and set retest interval
- Inspect chain link elongation and pin fatigue
- Track brake pad degradation rate (start vs. now)
- Predict clutch and belt life based on operating hours
Lubrication System Checks
- Replace engine oil & filter; record hours since last change
- Sample hydraulic fluid for lab testing (viscosity, metal, water)
- Inspect gearbox and axle fluid under black light for contamination
- Top off and chart coolant mixture ratio and freeze protection
- Grease all zerks and pivot points per lubrication chart
Advanced Safety Tests
- Verify FOPS and ROPS integrity visually and by torque test
- Load test forks under max rated load and observe frame deflection
- Functional test of seat interlock system and sensor reset
- Pull test emergency stop and verify circuit continuity drop
- Fire extinguisher date recertification, weight, seal condition
Diagnostics & CMMS Readings
- Pull live error codes from onboard diagnostic system (CAN-bus)
- Download historical fault logs for last 3 months
- Record hour meter data and sync with CMMS
- Track fuel efficiency since last maintenance entry
- Update digital signature fields for manager sign-off
Predictive Performance Metrics
- Compare lift speed vs. baseline recorded during commissioning
- Document tilt lag time and hydraulic pump response
- Chart voltage drop during cranking cycle
- Measure idle vibration and decibel level trends
- Rate steering precision vs. full lock with known radius
