The most commonly replaced forklift parts include tyres, batteries (for electric forklifts), filters, forks, hydraulic seals and brakes. These components are subject to regular wear and tear due to heavy usage. Tyres often need replacing due to wear, while batteries and filters require replacement as part of routine maintenance. Hydraulic seals can wear out over time, and forks may become damaged from heavy lifting. Regular inspection and replacement of these parts ensure the forklift operates safely and efficiently.

Forklift tyres should be replaced when they show signs of excessive wear, such as deep cuts, chunking or when the tread is worn down. Solid tyres often have a wear line, indicating when replacement is necessary. If the forklift feels unstable or difficult to control, worn tyres could be the cause. It’s important to replace tyres promptly to avoid accidents or damage to the forklift. Regular inspections and maintaining proper tyre pressure can help extend the life of your tyres.

When buying a new forklift, consider factors like the type of loads you’ll be lifting, the operating environment (indoor or outdoor), and the height you need to lift to. The forklift’s capacity, fuel type (electric, diesel or LPG), and tyre type are also important. Additionally, think about long-term maintenance costs and the availability of parts. It’s crucial to buy from a reputable dealer who offers support, warranties and maintenance services to ensure you’re getting the right equipment for your needs.
