Forklift Classifications

The following forklift classes describe the application and fuel option of every forklift. Certification is required for each class of forklift that the operator would be using.



Class 1 - Electric Motor Rider Trucks

These forklifts come with either pneumatic or cushion tires. Pneumatic tires are recommended for outdoor application in dry conditions. The models with cushion tires are designed for smooth, indoor surfaces. These are electrically powered vehicles which use industrial batteries, which make them desirable inside closed locations where the quality of air is a problem. Travel and hoist functions are controlled by transistor motor controllers. These are versatile units normally used everywhere from storage facility to the loading dock.



Class 2 - Electric Motor Narrow Aisle Trucks

This forklift is suggested for places where narrow aisles need to be negotiated. They are effective at maximizing the use of storage space. Their unique design makes them ideal where speed is needed and for small spaces.



Class 3 - Electric Motor Hand or Hand-Rider Trucks

These are battery-powered and hand-controlled models. Using a steering tiller, the operator could control the lift while standing in front of the truck. The tiller has controls mounted on top and is moved laterally to maneuver the vehicle. The smaller capacity units use industrial batteries.
