Forklift- Technician ratio

I was wondering how many lifts a tech is supposed to handle. I was told the other day the industry standard is 35 to 1. I've personally handled up to around 120 lifts, but alot of those were ones with very low usage ( about 4 hrs/week). I've never worked for a forklift dealer so I have no idea what a dealership expects of it's tech's.
