When driving, you should pay attention to the speed limit and never exceed the speed limit.
2. Smooth operation
Starting, steering, driving, braking, stopping and other operations should be kept stable to avoid emergency operations.
Slow down around corners to ensure safe passage.
3. Troubleshooting
During driving, if you find suspicious noise or abnormal phenomena, you should stop immediately for inspection.
Troubleshoot in time to ensure safety before continuing the operation.
4. Carriage of goods
When carrying goods uphill, it should drive in the forward direction; When going downhill, drive in the opposite direction.
When driving on a ramp, steering is prohibited.
When unloaded, the fork is 200-300 mm from the ground; When the cargo is traveling, the height of the cargo from the ground must not be greater than 500 mm, and the mast should be tilted backwards.
When driving on flat ground, the mast should be lowered.
Except for loading and unloading, you must drive on the right.

New energy forklift power system controllerIn the electric forklift power unit, when the forward contactor is closed, the motor is in a forward rotation state; Whereas, when the reverse contactor is closed, the motor is reversed. By changing the direction of the armature current or excitation current, or by changing the polarity of the excitation winding, the commutation control of the motor is realized. However, the use of two sets of excitation windings with opposite windings will lead to a complex structure and an increase in the volume of the motor, so the first two methods are more commonly used in practicalDo you like ?0

Electric forklifts vs. internal combustion forkliftsHowever, there are also some drawbacks to internal combustion forklifts. First of all, diesel engines are more expensive to run, especially against the backdrop of the current surge in oil prices. Secondly, the internal combustion forklift is noisy and vibrate, and the operating noise of the diesel engine has an irreversible impact on the human body. In addition, the exhaust gas pollution is serious, even if the processor is installed, it will cause environmental pollution, and it is necessary to clean up the dust regularly, which is more cumbersome to maintain, and can easily lead to oil pollution problems on the site.Do you like ?0
