Battery Care & Maintenance

Correct care and maintenance of a traction and / or power batteries can ensure best use, longevity and efficiency are achieved. With the cost of an average forklift battery being a third of a new trucks purchase price it makes sense to look after this investment as well as the safety of operators who will be exposed to battery acid, possible electrocution etc. A correctly cared for traction battery will give good service for 20 years, an abused battery will often expire just after the warranty period.
