Used Caterpillar Container Forklift Rancho Cucamonga
A container forklift is specially used to unload and load big, heavy freight containers. They are used to transport freight off and on ships, truck beds and trains. Container forklifts are the most sturdy and biggest kinds of forklifts made. They have to be very maneuverable on uneven terrain and have sufficient torque and power to lift bulky containers safely. Normally, they have heavy-duty diesel engines and large pneumatic tires.
Like all types of forklifts, a container forklift uses forks in order to lift the containers. Forks must be positioned to ensure the load is secure during transport. Various kinds of container forklifts are just designed to lift the containers a few meters off the ground. Other container handlers utilize a different method for lifting containers to greater heights. A container handler makes use of 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. Standard forklifts do not have sufficient reach for working in ports. The forks are rated based on the most weight they could handle. The capabilities of the forklift must be posted prominently in the cockpit and should never be exceeded.
