A main consideration when purchasing a forklift is whether to opt for electric, hybrid or internal combustion. Each technology has its advantages and disadvantages. It is really vital to be able to distinguish one kind of forklift from another and to select the best one for the application. The following info can help you to select the type of forklift which best fits your needs.
The long-term cost savings is a major advantage of using electric forklifts. The first outlay to purchase spare batteries could seem pricey, but you save some money by not having to purchase fuel and bring it to the work location. If you use some kind of alternative energy source, such as solar panels or windmills, you can save even more money.
The drawback of electric is that downtime for charging the lift and changing out the batteries has to be factored in. This technology continues to get better as new ways of using electric technology advances.
Made so that the operator rides within the body of the truck, these electric-powered forklifts have counterbalance weights constructed into the body.
Ideal for areas with tight spaces. Rather than having counterweight in its body, this electric forklift is designed with straddle legs on each and every side to provide stability.
