Before requesting a quotation, confirm the required capacity, lifting height, shift pattern, aisle dimensions and battery preference.<\/p>\n<h2>Diesel forklifts<\/h2>\n<p>Diesel forklifts are commonly considered for industrial yards and outdoor applications. Confirm the working surface, operating environment, capacity, lift height, attachments and destination before selecting a model.<\/p>\n<h2>LPG and gasoline forklifts<\/h2>\n<p>LPG and gasoline forklifts can be considered where internal-combustion power is required and the operating conditions suit this equipment type. Confirm fuel availability, ventilation requirements, capacity and daily operating time with your supplier.<\/p>\n<h2>Send complete requirements<\/h2>\n<p>A clear enquiry helps the supplier recommend a suitable configuration.
