Used Caterpillar Container Forklift El Cajon

A container forklift is particularly designed to load and unload big, heavy freight containers. They are utilized to transport freight on and off truck beds, trains and ships. Container forklifts are the largest and most sturdy types of forklifts manufactured. They have to be extremely maneuverable on uneven terrain and have enough power and torque to safely raise large containers. They normally have heavy-duty diesel engines and big pneumatic tires.

Like all kinds of forklifts, a container forklift utilizes forks to raise the containers. Forks should be positioned to make certain the load is secure during transport. Some kinds of container forklifts are only designed to lift the containers a few meters off the ground. Other container handlers utilize a different technique for carrying containers to greater heights. A container handler uses a device attached to the front of the vehicle to clamp down on either end of the container like jaws. The machinery is counterbalanced with weights to be able to maintain stability.

Carrying and transporting containers is the main purpose of a container forklift. Regular forklifts do not have enough reach for working in ports. The forks are rated according to the most weight they could handle. The forklift's capabilities must never be exceeded and must be posted prominently in the cockpit.
