Classes

In order to organize the features of the various units, classes of forklifts have been categorized into eight classes. Classes I, II, and III pertain to electric lift trucks. Class I forklifts include electric motor trucks designed to be ridden by the operator while in operation. Class II electric forklifts are recommended for pulling and stocking goods inside a warehouse and are manufactured for efficiency in narrow aisle environments. Class III electric lift trucks are motor-powered hand trucks which are operated by an individual who walks behind the model.



Battery Specifications

Battery specifications provide information about what type of performance you can expect from them. Most forklifts have a plate which identifies the amount of volts available from the battery. The weight of the battery will usually be specified on the forklift as well, as that specification is required to know the amount of weight the lift truck would have to support. Usually the specification also includes the forklift weight without the battery.



Input
