Tip - When you are investigating used electric forklifts in and around Angus it may help to be aware that pallet trucks are manual trucks that will pick up a pallet and move it around a warehouse and are quite inexpensive. Battery operated pallet trucks are available but often the cost increase in adding the battery will make it just as cheap to buy a decent used forklift.

When you are trying to find used electric forklifts in and around Angus bear in mind that a 7,000lb triple stage 17ft mast does not mean that it can take 7,000lb and lift it 17ft in the air. Lift height greatly diminishes as the height of the load increases and above 10ft the load capacity drops off considerably. Always refer to the manufacturers load chart which will show the differential drop as the lift goes higher.
