Frequently Asked Questions About Forklift Service

Learn more about forklift repair, preventive maintenance, emergency service, mixed fleet support, and comprehensive service plans from Malin.

What forklift repair and maintenance services do you provide?

Malin provides a full range of forklift repair and maintenance services, from standard inspections and fluid changes to complete fork-to-bumper coverage for individual trucks or entire fleets. Service plans are available across four tiers—Essential, Essential Plus, Premier, and Ultimate—and can be tailored to the size of your fleet and operational requirements. Conveyor maintenance programs are also available for facilities with integrated material handling systems.

Do you offer preventative maintenance programs for forklift fleets?

Yes. Every service plan includes scheduled preventive maintenance using genuine Raymond parts and an additional 3,000 hours of warranty coverage. Higher-tier plans also include OEM fluid and filter changes, wheels and tires, battery and charger maintenance, and iTRACK® reporting to help maximize uptime and extend equipment life.

How quickly can emergency forklift repairs be scheduled?

Malin is known for fast response times and high first-time fix rates. For after-hours and emergency repairs, each branch provides emergency contact numbers so customers can reach a technician outside normal business hours. Contact your nearest Malin location to confirm emergency service availability.

Do you service electric forklifts as well as other lift truck models?

Yes. Malin services the full Raymond lineup of electric forklifts, including reach trucks, counterbalanced trucks, pallet jacks, order pickers, and swing reach trucks. Services include battery and charger maintenance, electrical diagnostics, and iWAREHOUSE® software updates where applicable.

Can you repair non-Raymond forklifts?

Yes. Malin's technicians complete extensive training that prepares them to service virtually any type of material handling equipment, including non-Raymond forklifts. This allows businesses with mixed fleets to consolidate maintenance, repairs, scheduling, and vendor management through a single service provider.

What is included in a comprehensive forklift service plan?

Malin's Premier and Ultimate service plans provide the highest level of coverage. Premier includes scheduled maintenance, OEM fluid and filter changes, and complete fork-to-bumper parts and labor coverage. Ultimate adds wheels and tires, damage coverage, iTRACK® reporting, single monthly invoicing, and scheduled partnership meetings to simplify fleet management and budgeting.

How can a planned maintenance program reduce unexpected repair costs?

Planned maintenance identifies wear before it leads to major component failures, helping reduce unexpected breakdowns and expensive repairs. Fixed-price service plans such as Premier and Ultimate bundle parts and labor into a predictable monthly cost while extending equipment life, improving energy efficiency, increasing uptime, and lowering total cost of ownership.
