The Importance of Proactive Forklift Battery Maintenance

Too many operations run on a reactive maintenance model, dealing with battery issues only after a failure brings everything to a halt. This approach is costly, leading to unexpected downtime, expensive forklift battery charger repair bills and a shortened battery lifespan.

Conversely, a proactive approach can reduce repair costs and minimize downtime. By implementing a regular maintenance schedule, you can anticipate needs, prevent failures, and transform your power source from a liability into a reliable asset. This is where Concentric can help. Our ConcentricCARESM program takes care of your preventative maintenance so you can focus on the core of your business.

Preventative Maintenance

• Voltage and specific gravity readings of cells

• Charger testing and maintenance for safety and accuracy

• Industry-leading diagnostic evaluation

• Complete digital record keeping for cost of ownership decision making at the asset and fleet level

Forklift Battery Safety is a High Priority

Safety should always be the top priority in any forklift battery maintenance program. OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.178 requires proper ventilation, correct vehicle positioning, and open battery compartments during charging to reduce risk. Maintaining these conditions across a fleet tales expertise and consistency, something Concentric delivers through comprehensive preventative maintenance programs that protect your equipment, support compliance, and keep your operation running.
