- Know Your Load Capacity
Every forklift has a limit for how much weight it can lift.
Example: If you need to move 2 tons daily, choose a 2-ton forklift.
Always select a forklift that can handle a little more than your average load, so you don’t overload the machine.
- Check the Lifting Height
Do you need to lift loads only 3 meters high or up to 6 meters?
Small warehouses may need just 3m lifting height.
Big warehouses with racks require 6m or more.
Choose according to your storage system.
3.Power Source: Electric or Diesel
- Electric Forklift: Battery-operated, eco-friendly, less noise. Best for indoor use.
- Diesel / Petrol Forklift: More powerful, good for outdoor and heavy-duty work.
For warehouses and malls → Electric is best.
For construction and outdoor sites → Diesel/Petrol works better.
4 Space & Working Area
Narrow aisles? Use Electric Stackers or Reach Trucks.
Wide open yards? Use Diesel Forklifts.
Always check the turning radius — smaller machines are better for tight spaces.
5 Maintenance & Service Support
Choose a forklift brand or supplier that gives:
- Easy spare parts availability
- After-sales service and Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC)
- Quick support in case of breakdown
6 Budget & Long-Term Costs
Diesel forklifts may look cheaper, but fuel and maintenance add up.
Electric forklifts may cost more at first, but they save money in the long run with lower operating costs.
Final Tip
Always match the forklift to your work environment, load capacity, and lifting needs. Talk to experts, ask for demonstrations, and compare options before buying.
The right forklift will not only save time and money but also improve safety and efficiency in your workplace.
