To get the maximum life span from your forklift battery, to ensure safety and optimal performance, and to avoid unnecessary expenses, proper battery cell maintenance is vital. However, with modern workload pressure and a lack of available manpower, it is often difficult for customers to find the time to have a regular and correct battery maintenance programme in place.

Such lack of proper maintenance can invalidate manufacturer’s warranties, put machinery out of action causing great inconvenience to production processes and can prove extremely costly into the bargain.

So to help with this all too common scenario, in addition to general forklift scheduled services, JAF Fork Trucks can put in place a battery maintenance contract and thus take the responsibility away from your staff.

Regular scheduled site visits from specialist battery engineer to monitor battery cell electrolyte levels, clean your batteries, carry out safety checks and minor repairs and inspect your batteries and report on their condition at a frequency to suit you.

For customers who prefer to carry out their own battery cell maintenance we also provide on-site battery care protocol training.
