There are a variety of container entry forklifts available. These units are fitted with a mast that allows the forklift to lift without raising the forklift to lift without raising the units overall height. This lift height it limited but still allows stacking and unloading within a shipping container. These units are also ideal to use on sites with limited headroom.
As recommended by the manufacturers, new forklifts will need to be serviced every 200-250 hours and this will be influenced by the work and site conditions. For machines that aren’t being operated regularly it is recommended that they have a safety check every 3-6 months. Regular services save both time and money by reducing downtime and repairing problems before they cause damage to other parts of the unit or cause safety issues.

Petrol powered forklifts can be converted to run on both LPG and petrol. This installation has to be carried out by a licensed LPG mechanic.
Yes, diesel powered forklifts are available.
Forklifts in most cases run on LPG (Liquid Petroleum Gas). Forklifts that run on gas must have a compliance plate displaying when the system was tested and who by. This compliance plate will identify the type of gas the unit should be using. The other type of gas that forklifts use is CNG (Compressed Natural Gas). LPG cylinders are removable from the unit and in special cases are delivered full on an exchange basis. Please note; these cylinders can not be filled at the pump at service stations.
