Regular daily inspections and preventive maintenance are essential requirements to ensure the service life of container straddle carriers. Basic inspections include: Checking equipment components for any signs of wear, leakage, or loose parts; and paying attention to key areas such as hydraulic systems, brakes, tires, and structural components. Any abnormalities must be dealt with promptly to minimize maintenance costs. Secondly, it is necessary to formulate a comprehensive inspection plan that includes all key components, including:

 

Structural Integrity: The frame, mast, and all load-bearing components of the entire equipment must be carefully inspected for any signs of wear, cracks, or deformation. You can take photos and records, analyze the causes of problems, and provide timely feedback to deal with them.

 

Hydraulic system: We need to check for fluid leaks, check hoses and connections for looseness, and check the levels of hydraulic oil, engine oil, coolant, and transmission oil. Low levels may cause overheating, component wear, and system failure. wait. It is also necessary to determine whether the hydraulic pump and active power can operate properly.

Electrical system: Sensors, controllers, and all electrical connections need to be verified for proper operation.

 

Wheels and Tires: Check the condition of your wheels and tires, observing and recording any wear, cuts, bulges, and whether they are properly inflated to ensure that the tires maintain proper pressure. Also replace tires regularly to ensure even wear, inflate, and perfectly maintain them.
 

Safety systems: Emergency stop buttons, brakes, and other safety-critical systems must be tested to ensure they are functioning properly and without potential safety hazards.

 

In addition, local laws and regulations and the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule need to be strictly adhered to, such as regular oil changes, filter replacement, and lubrication of moving parts. Only by actively taking effective preventive measures can the service life of the container straddle carrier be significantly extended.

Operators must master certain professional maintenance knowledge to better maintain the good performance of the equipment.

For example: Operators need to know how to lift, transport, and stack cargo correctly to minimize stress on machine components; operators also need to be provided with relevant guidance on safe driving speeds, cornering techniques, and driving in tight spaces to prevent accidents Accidents and unnecessary wear and tear. The importance of safety guidelines, such as using personal protective equipment and adhering to load capacity limits, should be emphasized to operators from the outset. Allow operators to establish a high sense of responsibility, which not only protects themselves but also facilitates equipment maintenance.
