How do I figure out which model I need?

We carry all sizes available. Vehicles are classified by how much they weigh and their fuel source. Our forklift sales models range from 1.5 to 7 tonnes, and we carry gas, diesel, LPG and electric options.

What you choose will depend on the maximum weight of the materials to be lifted. Most of our customers buy a 2.5 tonne vehicle, also known as a container machine as it is often used to move items out of shipping containers. These can carry a maximum load of 2.3 tonnes. Here are the weights of the other models we carry and their maximum loads:

Weight (Tonnes) Maximum Load (Tonnes)
1.5 1.2
2.5 2.3
3 2.8
3.5 3.2
4 3.8
4.5 4.2
7 6
Should I buy a gas or electric model?
  • Consider how much you are likely to use it when deciding which energy source you want. For those who will be using their vehicle for 6–8 hours a day, gas is likely to be your best option.

    Electric vehicles are best for those who will be using their forklifts less. Electric vehicles run on a traction battery, the most expensive component of the machine. Using the battery for hours each day will quickly wear it down.
