6.0T Diesel Side Loader Forklift

Product description

The 6T Diesel Side Loader Forklift is a specialised machine for 6T diesel side loader forklift hire where long loads like timber, pipe, steel, and board need to be carried and placed without the width problem a standard forklift creates. By loading from the side, the machine travels down narrow aisles and through gateways while carrying lengths that would be unmanageable on conventional forks. With a 6 tonne rated capacity and diesel drive, it suits timber yards, steel merchants, and manufacturers handling long stock outdoors. The side-loading design keeps long loads stable and lets crews work in spaces a counterbalance forklift could not. Make, model and specifications may vary. Stocked models include but are not limited to those pictured.
