Carbon Monoxide Testing
Carbon monoxide (CO) testing provides consistant CO monitoring for each lift truck. Tail-pipe emissions and building CO testing are excellent tools to ensure safety around the workplace by monitoring the potentially harmful levels of carbon monoxide produced by lift trucks. For more information, contact our service department.
Planned Maintenance
This program is designed to help keep your equipment running at peak performance. Planned Maintenance is based on your truck's hourly usage and monitored by a computer program designed to keep track of your costs. This will provide you with an accurate HISTORY of your total cost of ownership of your equipment.
Full Maintenance
For one fixed monthly rate, all of your maintenance and repairs are covered. This CUSTOMIZED program will allow you to budget lift truck expenses while knowing that your trucks will be kept in top condition for maximum up time. This program is designed for one lift truck or a FLEET of lift trucks. We will work to develop a long-term strategy which focuses on immediate cost savings.
