Forklifts

Forklifts are used to transport, lift and engage palletized loads in material handling, construction, warehousing and manufacturing applications. With manual-drive forklifts, the load or travel movement is either powered manually or walk-behind. Motorized drive forklifts have a motorized drive. In numerous models, the forklift has a protected seat or cab for the operator. Fork trucks have features such as cabs, and backup alarms and are also motorized. Several models of forklifts are counterbalanced in order to prevent the vehicle from turning over. Other models are offered with safety rails, or a rotating element such as a hand rail or a turntable.



The stroke and lift capacity are other specification that you should take into consideration when selecting a kind of forklift. Lift capacity is defined as the supportable, maximum force or load. Stroke is defined as the difference between completely raised and fully lowered lift positions.



The type of fuel and the type of tire are also other key specifications which must be considered. The available fuel choices are: natural gas, liquid propane or LP, compressed natural gas or CNG, electricity, diesel, gasoline or propane.



There are two basic types of tires utilized for forklifts and fork trucks: solid and pneumatic. The solid or cushion tires need less maintenance than pneumatic tires and do not puncture easily. Pneumatic or air-inflated tires offer load cushioning and great drive traction. At the end of the day, cushion or solid tires offer less shock absorption.



Class VII forklifts are usually designed to be used on rough terrain. These types of machinery are normally used in construction, agriculture and in logging environments. Lastly, Class VIII forklifts have all personnel and burden carriers. Dual Fuel lift trucks often fit in this class.
