Forklift Fuel Choices
Internal Combustion Counterbalanced (Cushion or Pneumatic Tire)
Lift Truck Class IV & V
Todays Electric Trucks – cushion tire or outdoor/pneumatic
With powerful AC motors, electric forklifts operate in the all-weather,
high demand, multi-shift operations formerly served by LP trucks
Consider The Alternative
Electric Counterbalance (sit-down or standup!)
Lift Truck Class I
Continuing Growth Trend of Electric Lifts
• Environmentally Friendly
• Continued Motor & drivetrain Technology Advancement
• Battery and Charger Technology Improvements
• Reduced Maintenance Costs and better reliability
• Lower Long-term cost of ownership (see EPRI or C2E calc.)
• Ergonomic Design and Operator Comfort vs IC Lifts
• Improved Safety over IC Lifts
• LP – CARB / EPA Restrictions (increase costs & reduce performance)
Cleaner and Greener!
Electric trucks are unquestionably better for the
environment - but here are a couple of extra points
to note:
• ZERO exhaust emissions (HC, CO, NOx)
• Cleaner air quality w/o expensive indoor filtration or
ventilation ++ less soot collecting on products!
• Less potential for hazardous leaks (coolant, oil,
transmission fluid, fuels) in indoor environments.
• Some States offer government subsidies in choosing
IC over electric trucks (i.e...CARB, TERP etc.…….)
In Summary, Electric Trucks are……
