Whilst trying to find Forklifts in and around somerset bear in mind that side shift capability can be useful when lining up the forks with the pallet. Rather than backing up and to reposition the forklift side shift allows the carriage to move sideways thus saving a lot of time.

When searching for Forklifts in and around somerset remember that the forklift you buy has to fit your requirement. A standard mast will normally lift to around 3m (10ft), which is fine for offloading goods and moving them around a yard but won’t necessarily work if you have higher shelving or racking.

Whilst trying to find Forklifts in and around somerset you might like to note that you can expect to achieve an average of 12 hours running time from a standard gas fuelled truck with a four cylinder engine. A full tank of gas will generally last for to 4 days even if the forklift is in use eight hours a day, as time spent getting on and off the forklift reduces the actual running time during the shift.
