The IC or internal combustion forklifts are used most frequently for indoor applications like manufacturing, trucking, bottling and warehousing. Normally, these models use solid rubber tires known as cushion tires. The Internal Combustion forklift models can run either by LPG or Liquid Petroleum Gas, dual fuel or diesel. The dual fuel models operate with both LPG and gasoline. These machinery are able to work on either fuel but not at the same time. IC or Internal Combustion engines are Class 4 lift trucks. The engine could power the truck, the hydraulics and all functions of the truck.
Nissan's forklift Platinum II units and the GO4 Series have lifting capacities from 3000 to 11,000 pounds. They come in units powered by LPG/gasoline or LPG or dual-fuel engines. The CARB certification on these particular engines gives them the confidence to help protect nature since it enables the forklifts to produce low emissions. The environmental certifications like CARB, help employers provide their employees cleaner and therefore safer working atmosphere.
Nissan's fuel management systems such as the LP/Gas combinations provide optimal engine operation which would help to lessen exhaust emissions and offer fantastic fuel economy at the same time. Each and every Platinum II fork truck is equipped with their standard compressive engine protection system in place to warn operators in the event of excessive heat or a severe drop in oil pressure. This specific system helps to extend your engine and drive train life to help keep your lift truck investment functioning at its optimum ability.
Because companies have tried to become more "green" to be more environmentally friendly and efficient, the dual fuel lift trucks models have been making big waves in the business. It's also a great idea to rent the machine for a while to see if you like the way it handles before buying one. There are a lot of different options in the industry today and with some research, you can pick the right model for your particular use.
