Forklift

[slippymurphy]

hi

I'm looKing to buy a wee forklift gas/diesel/leccy not really fussy

Doesn't need to be fancy or bonny as long as it starts and runs and can lift a bag of logs will be used in shed on concrete.

Pm me if you hear of any one.

Cheers

I have a Nissan 2.5 tonne lifting counterbalance. You see a lot of them on eBay, and they are good trucks. I've had mine a little over 3 years, cost just over £2000, I've spent just over £2000 on it in repairs/services and it works hard over terrain it was never intended to cover. Also lifts 3.8 tonnes, not the plated 2.5. Recommended.

I have a BLC Bulgarian built forklift with a very smokey Bulgarian Perkins copy starts runs and say it should lift 2.5tonnes all for £500

Don't bother with second hand electric unless you have good provenance for the batteries and charger.

Mast height. Essential if you have restricted access or want to load/unload containers
