# Sudden Lifts and Drops Generate Impact Loads That Accelerate Bearing Wear

## Sudden Lifts and Drops Generate Impact Loads That Accelerate Wear

When lifting and lowering loads, a forklift creates sharp impact loads on the mast bearings and hydraulic system. These dynamic effects accelerate fatigue wear.

## Load Characteristics

- Impact during sudden load lifting
- Vibration when lifting to height
- Side loads when tilting the mast
- Combined loads when moving with a load

## Solutions

Spherical roller bearings and tapered roller bearings with high impact resistance are used. Bearings with reinforced separators are applied. It is recommended to use re-lubricatable bearings.
