Replacement and Rejuvenation - Back From The Dead

Button

Batteries are often the source of great frustration. While Electric Forklifts are quiet and clean, their batteries can make them a great inconvenience. Replacing a battery can cost thousands of dollars, Battery rejuvenation can significantly extend the life of a battery at a fraction of the cost but it will not always solve the Problem.

Regular Inspection and Maintenance

Regular testing and inspection will help to maximise battery life. A routine inspection at least once a month is recommended to maintain optimum performance.

Your Forklift, Rejuvenated

Our expert repair Technicians use specialised equipment to inspect your battery and assess the feasibility of rejuvenation. After we’ve assessed the Battery, we rejuvenate your Battery through the removal of harmful contaminants and dirty fluid. After the process is complete, your Battery should be able to operate at levels nearly equal to that of a new Battery.

Do NOT induce vomiting – give a glass of water. Seek immediate medical assistance.

Exploding Battery

Batteries generate explosive gases during vehicle operation and when charged separately. Flames, sparks, burning cigarettes or other ignition sources must be kept away at all times. Exercise caution when working with metallic tools or conductors to prevent short circuits and sparks.

Always Wear Eye Protection When Working Near Batteries

When charging batteries, work in a well-ventilated area - never in a closed room. Always turn battery charger or ignition off* before disconnecting a battery.
