Hello all!
New to the forum and new to being a forklift owner.
I recently purchased a Hyundai 30D-7 with 4200 hours on it. Mechanically it seems in very good shape, with the exception of the brakes. This truck has 'wet' brakes and I was told by the fellow that has serviced the machine that the chatter when braking is normal for wet brakes. I'm no expert and I can't be sure that any of the forklifts I have used, in the past, had wet brakes, but it doesn't seem normal to me. I have used tractors with wet brakes and experienced no such chatter.
My test drive of the lift was unloaded and just a short drive around the parking lot, so heat build up was not part of the equation.
Any advice on troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated.
Charlie
