Don't overload the forks as it can be dangerous and damage the equipment. For maintenance, regularly check the reinforced brick guard for any signs of wear or damage. Also, look at the quick - attach area and make sure it's clean and functioning well. After each use, give the powder - coated frames a wipe down to keep them in good condition. And always refer to the serial tag for the correct lift capacity details during operation.
