You already know the importance of changing the oil filter to protect your forklift's components, but some brands and models suggest different intervals. Most forklift manufacturers say to change the filter every 500 hours of use. In practice, you should change the filter around every three months, but check your forklift service manual.

Additionally, OSHA requirements state that operators must inspect their forklifts daily before every shift to ensure the driver's safety. Those inspections include checks of engine oil levels. Inspections include:

• Your oil filter's age and use by writing the hour meter reading and date on the filter itself when you change it.
• Review the notation on the filter to ensure it's up to date. At the 500-hour mark, or at least once per year for lower-use forklifts, swap out your used filter for a new one.

Each of our filters can be setup on an auto-shipment plan as well. Create an account with your credit card information saved and set the delivery frequency. Your shipment of filters will remind you to change your oil on your forklifts!

Clogged oil filters cause reduced efficiency and can harm vital internal components of your forklift. Prevent damage to your equipment and avoid costly downtime managing unnecessary repairs. Instead, get your aftermarket Toyota 7FGCU25 oil filters from Intella Parts.
