Farm forklift servicing and repairs

Arrange a conversation about forklift maintenance or a mechanical concern at your farm.

Speak directly with Raj, a mechanic with 20+ years of experience across India, Saudi Arabia and New Zealand, including eight years in NZ. His previous work at Almarai included tractors, loaders, forklifts, trucks and hydraulics.

Start with the forklift specification

Provide the make, model, serial number, hours and power type. Explain whether the machine is diesel, petrol, LPG or electric. Raj’s mechanical background includes forklifts, but the work available depends on the machine and the systems involved. Fuel-gas, high-voltage or specialist work must be agreed separately.

Separate operating faults from maintenance

Tell Raj whether the complaint concerns starting, running, travel, steering, braking or lifting. Include previous repairs and any written inspection findings. Routine servicing does not replace required inspections or certification, and this page does not offer certification or operator training.

Prepare a controlled work area

Agree where the forklift will be parked, who controls access and how it will be isolated for the job. Keep other operators informed that the machine is unavailable. Confirm the assessment cost and who may approve additional work; where the repair requires specialist facilities, discuss the next step before a visit.

What to send with your enquiry

You can also send the enquiry form with photographs. Photos support the first conversation; inspection may still be needed before a reliable repair quote.

Local bookings and nearby visits

ARM Cars is based in Morven, serving Waimate District and nearby South Canterbury communities including Glenavy, Studholme, Willowbridge, Makikihi and St Andrews. Call before visiting. For a nearby mobile job, send the exact location so Raj can confirm access, travel charges and whether the work is suitable on site.

How much will it cost?

Pricing depends on the vehicle or machine, diagnosis, parts and agreed labour. Ask for the inspection charge, an estimate or quote for the proposed work, and the process for approving anything additional. An online enquiry is not a confirmed appointment.
