All-terrain forklifts come in two basic style mast type and boom. Units are usually powered by a diesel engine and larger than industrial units. The reason for this is that industrial units are rates for hard level surfaces. The all-terrain unit is rated to travel over uneven surfaces and to lift on uneven level surfaces. The first type is the mast type unit these come in 2 to 16 tonne with lift heights to 7000mm. These units come with power-shift or Hydrostatic transmissions. The units Are available in both 2 and 4 WD and are available in configurations of large and small tyres and the latter model tend to be all equal size. They are usually 2 wheel steer. Tip… These units are more suited to yard work with exception of very low profile units that are used on building site to travel between the floors of car parks. These units are available with lowered heights under 2000mm. The information that will be required when enquiring about these units will be: 1. Capacity and size of load? 2. Lift height required? 3.

The second type of unit is the boom type this unit is much more versatile than the mast type as the units have the ability fit many attachments such as buckets ect. The units tend to be four wheel drive and steer allowing greater maneuverability. The units also have capacities of two to seven tonne and boom heights to 22 mtrs. Some of the larger units even have full slew capabilities. Tip…The mast units require a standard forklift license the boom units that lift over 3000Kgs or above 13mtrs require a non-slewing crane license and the slewing units require slewing crane license. Call us for more details on workcover license requirements. The units have a quick hitch to change attachments quickly. The units capacity is at full height as close as possible to front of unit.
