idler adjustment

I have a customer that has 'slightly' uneven floors and they keep getting stuck with a load on the forks so I adjusted the tension off the idler a few turns and now are chewing up rf load arm wheels. I can't win. Is there a bushing in the articulation that might be worn out? -Troy

The first polymer banknote was a commemorative $10 note issued in 1988 to mark the Bicentenary. The first polymer banknotes were also the first to feature a transparent "window" as a security feature.
