When you are trying to find articulated lift trucks in and around Looe PL13 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.

When you are looking for articulated lift trucks in and around Looe PL13 then be aware that the lift truck you buy needs to fit the application you require it for. A standard mast will generally only lift to about 10ft, which is fine for offloading goods and moving them around a yard but won’t necessarily be suitable if you have high shelving/racking.
