In Erin, forklifts quietly power a lot of hard work. Whether you’re running a warehouse, working the land, or managing shipments, these machines are the backbone of your day-to-day.

Stop Small Issues Before They Turn Into Big Problems
Most forklift breakdowns don’t happen out of nowhere. There are usually warning signs, like a lift that jerks a bit, brakes that feel off, or a battery that’s not holding charge. Ignore those signs, and the problem tends to show up right when you need the machine most.
We don’t believe in band-aid fixes. We take the time to find the actual problem, fix it properly, and double-check everything before you put it back to work. That way, you’re not calling us again next week for the same issue.
Some of the most common forklift problems we see in Erin include:
- Leaking hydraulics or weak lifting power
- Transmission slipping or grinding gears
- Brakes that squeal or lose strength
- Electrical faults and dead batteries
- Bent forks or mast alignment issues
- Worn tires and tough steering
- Engine trouble (propane, gas, diesel)
- Full Bobcat truck servicing and repairs
Whatever the issue, chances are we’ve seen it and fixed it before.
We also take care of Bobcat truck repairs, which many businesses in Erin rely on every day.
Our Repair Process
When you call us, you’re not getting rushed service or confusing tech speak. We keep things simple:
1. Inspection – We go over your forklift from top to bottom to find the issue.
2. Clear Explanation – We break down the problem and your options in plain language.
3. Expert Repair – Our skilled technicians fix the problem efficiently and correctly.
4. Testing – Before we hand it back, we make sure it’s safe, reliable, and ready for work.
Here’s how we tackle the usual issues:
| Problem | What You’ll Notice | How We Fix It | What You Can Do |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hydraulic Leaks | Jerky lifts, leaking fluid | Replace seals, check hoses, top up fluid | Keep an eye on hose condition |
| Engine Trouble | Hard starts, smoke, poor power | Tune-up, fix fuel/ignition systems | Regular oil and filter changes |
| Brake Issues | Squealing, weak stopping power | Replace pads, adjust systems | Get brakes checked regularly |
| Electrical Problems | Dead battery, flickering lights | Test battery, wiring, alternator | Clean terminals, check battery age |
| Fork/Mast Damage | Crooked forks, noisy mast | Realign or replace forks/chains | Lubricate and check often |
| Transmission Wear | Slipping gears, rough shifts | Replace worn parts, flush fluids | Stay on top of fluid changes |
| Tire & Steering | Uneven tire wear, stiff turning | Replace tires, adjust steering | Rotate tires, check for wear |
Regular Maintenance = Less Downtime, Less Stress
Not all breakdowns are avoidable, but a lot of them are. Staying on top of routine maintenance is the best way to avoid last-minute emergencies, extend your forklift’s life, and keep your team moving.
The best part? You choose when we come by. No surprise interruptions during busy hours, just planned service that works around your day.
Here’s what regular maintenance looks like:
| Service | Why It Matters | When To Do It |
|---|---|---|
| Oil & Filter Changes | Keeps engine running smooth | Every 250 hours |
| Hydraulic Check | Prevents lifting failures | Every 500 hours |
| Brake Inspections | Keeps your operators safe | Every 250 hours |
| Battery Testing | Prevents unexpected shutdowns | Weekly to Monthly |
| Tire & Steering Check | Keeps driving stable and safe | As needed |
| Transmission Service | Extends machine life | Every 1,000 hours |
| Coolant System Flush | Stops overheating | Once a year |
Even an hour or two of scheduled service now can save you days of downtime later. At Forklift Toronto, we design forklift maintenance schedules around your fleet, whether you operate two machines or dozens spread across multiple Erin facilities, we’ll build a plan that works for you.
