Setting them up right from the start prevents headaches, downtime, and extra costs. Here are five common mistakes plant managers make\u2014and how to avoid them.<\/p>\n<h4>The 5 Most Costly Mistakes<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>1. Overlooking Aisle Widths:<\/strong> Choosing the wrong size forklift for your layout can lead to maneuverability issues and damage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>2. Misjudging Load Requirements:<\/strong> Underrated forklifts wear out faster and pose safety risks.<\/li>\n<li><strong>3. Ignoring Charging or Fuel Logistics:<\/strong> Your setup must align with shift lengths and charging\/refueling infrastructure.<\/li>\n<li><strong>4. Skipping Preventive Maintenance Planning:<\/strong> Waiting until breakdowns occur leads to major delays and unplanned expenses.<\/li>\n<li><strong>5. Not Matching Equipment to Tasks:<\/strong> Using one-size-fits-all forklifts limits productivity in high-demand or specialized zones.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Set Up Your Fleet for Long-Term Success<\/h4>\n<p>A proper fleet setup starts with understanding your operation\u2019s unique needs\u2014from aisle widths to runtime and operator habits.
