Forklift Motors
Buying a forklift is something you should carefully think about. A forklift is a huge capital expenditure, and a complex machine with a motor strong enough to execute heavy-lifting jobs. The price tag for a forklift ranges from $10,000 to $30,000, comparable to the cost of a small truck. If purchasing a used forklift, be certain to have it checked for potential mechanical issues.
The two kinds of forklift motors are: electric or internal combustion. Forklifts with electric motors are normally more expensive than those with internal combustion motors. The size of the motor should suit the type of work for which the forklift would be used. A forklift with a motor which is big costs much more than one with a motor which is smaller.
Gasoline or propane powered motors are normally stronger compared to electric motor and are capable of raising heavier weight. The downside is that gas motors tend to develop issues more often compared to electric motors. Depending upon the price of gas or propane, gas powered forklifts can be more pricey to operate than electric powered forklifts.
Reliable forklift manufacturers comprise Mitsubishi Caterpillar, Crown Equipment Corp., NACCO Industries and Toyota Industries. Prior to deciding, research the various manufacturers and the availability of parts. Reviews, testimonials and prices can be found on-line.
