What Kinds Of Fork Lift Can You Choose From



The most popular type of forklifts are the warehouse models. They vary in terms of the functions they perform. People usually require warehouse forklifts for:
  • Lifting very heavy loads (above 2000kgs)
  • Lifting smaller loads (0-1500kgs)
  • Placing or taking down loads from high up areas (5 metres or more)
  • Lifting Loads in confined spaces
For the first option, it is a goof idea to rent a Three/Four Wheel Counterbalance which can manoeuvre with ease. For smaller loads a hand operated Power Stacker is the best option. To reach high places, a Reacher can function up to 12 metres making it an excellent option. The last option requires a Narrow Aisle Forklift which can manoeuvre fantastically in tight spaces.



There are other types of machines apart from the warehouse variety. For example there are Side loaders which operate as part of a larger vehicle and effectively lift loads from the side instead of from the front. Increasingly popular are All Terrain Forklifts, which resemble a tractor in their design to make them perfect for all kinds of bumpy ground. (176)
