What is Planned Maintenance Service
Planned maintenance (PM) is a scheduled service designed to keep your forklifts in peak operating condition. Instead of reacting to breakdowns, planned maintenance focuses on routine inspections, adjustments and part replacements to prevent issues before they happen.
By identifying wear and tear early, planned maintenance reduces unexpected downtime and helps your fleet operate more efficiently day after day.
