BATTERY LIFE

• Each charge takes a cycle out of a battery. Most new batteries start with 1,500 cycles prior to the end of its usable battery life.
• A battery charged once each working day (300 per year) will last 5 years (1,500 cycles). Opportunity charging (mentioned below) can reduce the life by over half.
  

Remember, the battery is the fuel tank of the forklift.

Look after it and it will look after you.

WHEN SHOULD I REPLACE MY BATTERY?

• Your battery’s charge degrades to only a few hours of operational use.
• You have to charge the battery more than once a day to get a full shift’s work out of the forklift.
• You see corrosion buildup on the battery case.
• The battery emits a sulfurous “rotten eggs” smell.
• The battery starts smoking while charging or in use. (This is very dangerous and can cause a fire. Replace the battery immediately if this happens!).

BATTERY LIFE

• All of the above points can have a detrimental effect to your vehicle’s onboard electrical components This can result in costly repairs and replacement parts adding further to your maintenance costs!
