In a twinkling of an eye, the Spring Festival holidays are over. Let's start with a good start. Today I bring you eight rules for prolonging the life of forklift tyres.

Have you applied these rules to the operation of forklift trucks? If not, these rules are worth trying to extend the life of forklift tires.

1. Training forklift drivers

Proper driving habits can save tires. Instruct the driver to maintain and operate the equipment properly. Check tire tread flattening and any irregular mechanical wear on forklift trucks.

2. Keep the passage clean

The chaos of aisles, runways and other driving roads can aggravate tire damage. Do a good job of floor maintenance and maintenance, so that there are no ruts, cracks and depressions. Nails, metal or glass scraps and other sharp objects can cause tread puncture and tire damage.

3. Marking the Driving Route

The marked route can be used as a guide for vehicle steering and as a warning for wall, storage rack or equipment approaching the route. Lines remind drivers that tyres should not collide, scrape or collide with obstacles.

4. Avoid excessive heat generation

Eliminate contact with hot metals as much as possible or operate for long periods in workshops with higher temperatures. Under these conditions, a large amount of heat generation will destroy the tire structure. Protecting the heat shield of the tire can prolong the service life of the tire.

5. Avoid overloading

Overloading can lead to tire failure; delamination, cutting and breaking of the tread base and bursting of the tire. Always concentrate the load on the forklift to balance the load on all tires. Don't swing the load at both ends of the forklift. In addition, fast turning can lead to overload.

6. Avoid sharp turns and stops

Quick turning, sudden opening and sudden stopping will accelerate tread wear, suffer from the crushing of harmful objects and bring strain, which may lead to tire failure.

7. Avoid oil, grease or gasoline

Avoid running tyres on these materials; they can damage rubber; if the tyres come into contact with these materials, wipe them immediately. Do not drop hydraulic oil on tires when power steering or lifting hose connectors. If the situation is unavoidable, the tire needs frequent contact with these materials, at this time, the tire with oil-resistant compound formula should be used.

8. Avoid persistent load

When the load lasts overnight or longer on the forklift truck, the solid tire will appear "tread smoothing". In extreme cases, with the development of tire tread smoothing, forklift trucks will bump along with each turn.
