Clark Electric Rider Lift Trucks TMX 20

Warning: Do not attempt to repair a worn chain. Lift chain repairs and adjustments should be made by trained service personnel.

Inspect and lubricate the lift chains every PM (50-250 hours). When operating in corrosive environments, inspect the chains every 50 hours.

Check for corrosion, cracked plates, raised or turned pins, tight joints, wear, and worn pins or holes.

Measure chain wear. When a section of chain is 3% longer than a section of new chain, the chain is worn and must be discarded.

Do not repair chains by cutting out the worn section and joining in a new piece. If part of a chain is worn, replace all the chains on a truck.

All chains must be replaced if any link has wear of 3% or more, or if any of the damaged conditions noted above are found during inspection.

Replace all chains as a set. Do not remove factory lubrication or paint new chains. Replace anchor pins and worn or broken anchors when installing new chains. Adjust tension on new chains. Lubricate chains when they are installed on the upright.

Warning: Uprights and lift chains require special attention to maintain them in safe operating condition. Uprights can drop suddenly. Look at the upright, but keep hands out.

Battery charging installations must be located in areas designated for that purpose. These areas must be kept free of all non-essential combustible materials.

Facilities provided for flushing spilled electrolyte?

Charging apparatus protected from damage by trucks?

Adequate ventilation for dispersal of fumes from gassing batteries?

When handling acid concentrates greater than 50 percent acid (above 1.400 specific gravity), an eye wash fountain must be provided.

Conveyor, overhead hoist, or equivalent material handling equipment provided for handling batteries?

IMPORTANT! Electric truck batteries are heavy and awkward to handle. They are filled with a very hazardous chemical solution. On charge, they give off hydrogen and oxygen which, in certain concentrations, are explosive. And they are costly. Before you remove, service, or install a truck battery, carefully read the following recommendations and instructions.

Check the overhead guard for damage

Ensure that the overhead guard is properly positioned

Ensure all mounting fasteners are in place and tight
