UnitedForklifts Service and Maintenance
Best choice to keep your trucks running
Regular forklift truck inspections are planned by the dealer and conducted by a specialist technician, in accordance with the manufacturer’s service schedule.
Each inspection includes an oil change, lubrication, checks, and adjustments, for a pre-agreed price.
The inspection report lists the maintenance operations.
UnitedForklifts draws up a parts and labor quotation for any extra work that is recommended in order to optimize the availability of trucks and minimize the risk of damage and major repairs.”Preventing Forklift Maintenance Contracts” This is a lift truck maintenance contract with recommended periodic service intervals, aimed at preventing breakdowns.
It consists of a complete inspection of all the maintenance items described in the manufacturer’s service manual for a lift truck.
The pre-agreed, all-inclusive maintenance price includes truck repair parts, labor, and the services of a technician. The daily checks/controls do not form part of the contract.
The maintenance report recommends essential repairs that need to be carried out and quotes them separately, allowing better planning for maintenance expenditure, made easier by prior knowledge of the cost, in line with the hourly estimated service schedule.”Full-service forklift maintenance contracts”A complete service contract from allowing the customer to focus completely on their business.
United Forklifts agrees with a customer on a “technical” yearly fee, for a period, typically between 12-24 months, in line with the hourly service schedule, which covers parts, labor, and the services of a technician.
The agreement covers all maintenance and repair work. Weekly checks and damage repairs following a handling incident or an accident are excluded.
Advantages include:
- Planning and control of all expenditures
- No surprise invoices
- Improved cash flow
- Optimum use of the truck
- Reduced operating costs
- The contract can include tires as an option.
- Higher resale value for the truck
“Rental, including maintenance”In this case, the customer hires the truck from United Forklifts for a period of 5 years, with the benefit of Full Service.
In return for an inclusive monthly technical rental fee (Full Service) and financing (Rental), customers have access to the truck(s) agreed in the contract.
By the end of the contract, the truck has paid for itself. The total monthly rental fee takes into account depreciation, residual value, and the different servicing schedules.
The contract makes a replacement truck available to you in case of a breakdown outside the contractual period.
The supply of pneumatic tires can be included as an option under the technical rental.
The main advantage is that customers enjoy the benefits of operating a truck with full service but are released from all the processes associated with owning and reselling the truck.
