Our warehouse currently utilizes 22 Crown RD3000 series ReachTrucks. My question is: Is it common for the reachrods that extend the scissors to fail? By this I mean they tend to bend or crack off the mounts. This seems to be occurring with frequency in our facility. These machines are approximately 15 years old and are constantly serviced by our own mechanics. Also I am told these cylinders are rebuilt and the rods are straightened using heat. Does this also weaken the strentgh of the metal rod?
