What should I adjust if the forklift is slow to lift the arm
As an important equipment in construction machinery, forklifts directly affect their working efficiency. Recently, there have been many discussions on the slow speed of forklift arm lifting across the network, and many users have reported that slow arm lifting affects the progress of the operation. This article will combine popular topics and hot content in the past 10 days to analyze the reasons and solutions for the slow lifting of forklifts, and provide structured data for reference.
1. Common reasons for slow arm lifting of forklifts
According to discussions across the network and expert analysis, slow forklift arm lifting is usually related to the following factors:
Cause classification | Specific performance | Percentage (wide network data) |
---|---|---|
Hydraulic system problems | Insufficient hydraulic oil, deterioration of oil, blocked filter element | 42% |
Wear of mechanical parts | Cylinder seal aging, pump and valve wear | 28% |
Improper operation | The engine speed is too low and the operating lever is not in place | 15% |
Other factors | Low ambient temperature, line failure | 15% |
2. Solutions and adjustment steps
To address the above problems, the following are the specific solutions:
1.Check the hydraulic system: First check whether the hydraulic oil level is within the standard range. If it is insufficient, you need to supplement the same model of hydraulic oil. At the same time, check whether the hydraulic oil is emulsified or deteriorated, and replace it with new oil if necessary. It is recommended to replace the hydraulic filter element every 500 hours.
2.Detect hydraulic pressure: Use a pressure gauge to test the hydraulic system pressure, the normal value range is as follows:
Forklift type | Standard Pressure (MPa) | Minimum allowable value |
---|---|---|
Small forklift (under 3 tons) | 16-18 | 14 |
Medium-sized forklift (3-8 tons) | 18-20 | 16 |
Large forklift (more than 8 tons) | 20-25 | 18 |
3.Adjust the hydraulic pump flow: If the pressure is normal but the speed is still slow, the flow control valve of the hydraulic pump can be adjusted. Rotating clockwise can increase the flow rate, but each adjustment should not exceed 1/4 of the turn. After adjustment, the arm speed must be tested.
4.Check mechanical parts: Focus on checking the sealing of the hydraulic cylinder. If the oil cylinder is leaked out or internally, the seal needs to be replaced. At the same time, check whether the multi-way valve core is worn, and grind or replace it if necessary.
3. Preventive measures and daily maintenance
To avoid the repeated occurrence of slow forklift arm lifting, daily maintenance is crucial:
Maintenance project | cycle | Things to note |
---|---|---|
Hydraulic oil inspection | every day | Observe oil level and oil quality |
Filter element replacement | 500 hours | Use original filter |
System exhaust | After each hydraulic oil replacement | Operation of forklift several times |
Comprehensive inspection | 2000 hours | Including pumps, valves, oil cylinders, etc. |
4. Answers to popular questions
Based on popular online questions in the past 10 days, we have sorted out the following common questions:
1.Q: What should I do if my arms are very slow when the weather is cold?
A: This is a normal phenomenon. It is recommended to idling for 10-15 minutes before operation to preheat the hydraulic system and replace the low-temperature hydraulic oil if necessary.
2.Q: What should I do if the speed becomes faster after adjustment but jitter occurs?
A: It may be because the flow rate adjustment is too large, so the control valve should be properly called back and check whether the hydraulic cylinder buffer device fails.
3.Q: What is the reason why the new forklift is slow to lift the arm?
A: Most of the hydraulic system exhaust is incomplete or the factory adjustment is improper. It is recommended to contact after-sales service for professional commissioning.
5. Summary
The problem of slow boom speed forklifts needs to be systematically investigated and solved. Judging from the data discussed on the entire network, hydraulic system problems account for the highest proportion, so special attention should be paid to the maintenance of hydraulic system in daily use. If the problem has not been resolved after self-adjustment, it is recommended to contact professional maintenance personnel in time to avoid greater losses caused by improper operation.
Through the above analysis and solutions, we hope to help users quickly diagnose and solve the problem of slow forklift lifting and improve work efficiency. Remember that regular maintenance is the best way to prevent failures.
