Hi all. Can anyone tell me if fork creep is a fail in the U.K.s Lolar test? I have recently replaced my aging forklift with a slightly lesser aged one but the forks do drop considerably over time. Last time measured it was about 80mm in an hour. It was sold to me with a new Lolar certificate and this has been happening since it was bought.
