Items To Be Checked - UniCarriers FG20 Series Operation & Maintenance Manual

ITEMS TO BE CHECKED

1 CHECK THE RESULT OF REPAIRS
PERFORMED ON PREVIOUS CHECKING
CAUTION
Never try to operate a faulty truck.
Check to see if any defect found on the previous
inspection has been repaired properly.
2 TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE AND TIRE
CONDITION CHECK
CAUTION
The tires of the lift truck have a high inflation
pressure. Make sure the tires and rims are normal
and inflate the tires to the standard air pressure.
Do not overinflate the tires.
When using an air compressor to inflate the tires,
first adjust the compressor air pressure properly.
Failure to do so will cause a serious accident
since the compressor delivers the maximum
pressure.
A small bend of the rim or a slightly damaged
tire might cause a flat tire, leading to a serious
accident. If you find any failure, contact your
local UniCarriers dealer.
Keep the inflation pressure of the tires always at proper
level.
NOTE
L o w a i r p r e s s u r e r e d u c e s t i r e s e r v i c e l i f e .
Unevenness of air pressure between right and left
tires will cause hard steering or the truck to wander.
The standard tire pressure is indicated on the decal at
the left side of the front guard.
Tire inflation pressure
Turn the tire valve cap counterclockwise and remove
it. Using a tire pressure gauge, measure the inflation
pressure and adjust for the standard inflation pressure.
Then, make sure there is no air leakage from the tire
valve, reinstall the tire cap.
Check that each tire does not get damaged at the tread
surface or side face or bending at the rim.
