There are many issues that need to be paid attention to during the use of casters. The following is a clear point-by-point representation and summary of some key points, and reference is made to the relevant figures and information in the article:


1. Ground adaptability

Ground type:


Different types of casters are suitable for different ground environments. For example, soft rubber wheels are suitable for uneven or soft ground, while hard plastic wheels are more suitable for flat and hard ground.


When selecting and using casters, the ground environment should be fully considered to ensure the performance and life of the casters.


2. Load limit

Strictly abide by the load limit:


Each caster has its maximum load limit. Exceeding this limit may cause damage or deformation of the caster, and even affect the safety of the entire equipment.


When using casters, the load limit should be strictly observed to avoid overloading.


3. Speed ​​control

Reasonably control the rolling speed:


The rolling speed of the caster will also affect its service life. Excessive speed may cause the caster to wear more and even cause safety problems.


When using casters, the rolling speed should be adjusted according to actual needs to avoid too fast or too slow.


4. Avoid collision

Prevent collision:


Casters should avoid collision with sharp objects or obstacles during use. Collisions may cause damage or deformation of casters, affecting the use effect.


When transporting or storing equipment, ensure that there are no obstacles around the casters to avoid collisions.


5. Regular cleaning and maintenance

Regular cleaning:


Casters will be contaminated with dust, oil and other debris during use. These debris not only affect the appearance of the casters, but also may affect their rolling effect and life.


Casters should be cleaned regularly to keep them clean and tidy.


Lubrication and maintenance:


The rolling part of the caster needs to be regularly added with lubricating oil or grease to reduce friction and wear.


When choosing lubricating oil or grease, refer to the recommendations of the caster manufacturer.


6. Inspection and replacement

Regular inspection of wear:


Regularly check the wear of the casters, and replace them in time if there is wear.


At the same time, check whether the fasteners of the casters are loose, and tighten them in time if they are loose.


Replace damaged parts in time:


For severely damaged casters, they should be replaced in time to ensure the safety and normal operation of the equipment.


VII. Precautions for special environments

Avoid extreme environments:


Avoid using casters in special environments such as acid, alkali, salt, oil, water, etc., which may cause corrosion or damage to the casters.


Avoid using casters in special places with extreme temperatures, such as steam rooms or cold storage.


VIII. Operating specifications

Follow operating specifications:


When using casters, follow the correct operating specifications and avoid sudden start, stop or turn and other violent actions to reduce the impact and wear on the casters.


Through the above precautions, you can ensure that the casters maintain good performance and life during use, and improve the safety and stability of the equipment.
