The Platinum II internal combustion or IC engine lift truck gives more horsepower and torque suitable for numerous tough outdoor or inside settings. This particular machine is capable of keeping your operation running smooth and maintaining high productivity. The Platinum II could be run by Liquid Propane, Gas, Dual Fuel with Gas/LP or Diesel. The fuel management system LP/Gas provided by Nissan optimizes engine operation in order to offer excellent fuel economy and reduced exhaust emissions.
Like the car engine, the internal combustion or IC lift trucks burn fuel in engines. It is most common for these machines to be used for outdoor operations. This is due to electric units not being safe for use in the rain. In addition, only internal combustion lift trucks are able to handle the biggest cargo. Like for instance, if you need more than 15,000 pounds capacity, you will definitely require an internal combustion engine.
The internal combustion forklift can be run by liquid propane, diesel fuel, CNG which is compressed natural gas and gas. The operating expenses are typically the highest for gas and lowest for diesel models. Propane and CNG fuels come in somewhere in the middle. A lot of individuals want their equipment based on existing vehicles and equipment on hand. Like for example, if you currently have fuel storage and use diesel vehicles, it is practical to utilize diesel forklifts too.
With their ability to refuel on the fly, the internal combustion lift truck offers a huge drawback: they can easily be filled up with a new propane canister or at a gas pump and your lift truck could continue to function in no time. These models are cheaper to purchase initially than electric lift trucks but actually cost a lot more per hour to operate.
The internal combustion forklift can stand up far better to misuse over the electric forklift units. Specifically, these equipment are used to tow or push cargo as opposed to driving and lifting. Usually, they have better top speeds and acceleration. For outdoor operation, this could truly be a big advantage.
