Used Daewoo Dual Fuel Forklifts Mesa

Basic Fuel Types of Forklifts
Powered lift trucks known as forklifts are used in almost every industry to move heavy items and supplies. The lift truck is a really durable and reliable equipment which has become essential tools in many warehouse and construction environments. Lift truck models vary depending on the type of work setting and the type of fuel which is used to power the lift truck.

Electricity
Electric forklifts are recommended for work sites which have limited ventilation because they make no exhaust fumes and are relatively quiet. They are designed to be powered by large, industrial-strength batteries. Since the electric forklift batteries require charging, the worksite will require a charging station. The batteries are durable and could be re-charged up to 1,500 times before they need to be replaced. The charging station should be located in a ventilated area and include an emergency eyewash station and an acid spill kit.

Propane
Forklifts powered by liquid propane have several benefits over electric and diesel powered equipment making them fairly common in industrial and warehouse settings. Propane engines are much cleaner compared to diesel-powered units. There is no down time needed to recharge an industrial battery, and the cost of electricity is more compared to the cost of propane. A forklift propane tank can be easily and quickly refueled by changing out the empty tank with a full tank. Typically an off-site supplier refills the empty tank, making refueling really efficient and safe.

Diesel and Gasoline
Diesel and gasoline lift trucks are the machinery of choice for outdoor applications and rough terrain. They are commonly found on lumber yards and construction sites. Their disadvantages include relatively high fuel costs, fairly high maintenance requirements and odorous exhaust. Their benefits include a longer lifespan compared to other units and reliability in tough conditions. Gasoline and diesel units should be refueled at a supply station on site which meets health and safety regulations.
