FAQs About Forklifts
Is an LPG, diesel or electric forklift best?
Each type of forklift has its advantages and disadvantages and will depend on your application. LPG and diesel offer more variable power, more torque, and can be refueled anywhere, but produce noticeable emissions and typically require more maintenance. Electric forklifts are emission free, require less maintenance, run quietly, and are easy to use, but must be recharged when they run out of power. The knowledgeable and experienced team at Royal Forklift will identify the forklift, or forklifts, that are best suited for you and your business based on your unique needs.
How should I maintain my forklift?
Royal Forklift offers a variety of maintenance options to keep your fleet at peak performance, including periodic maintenance (PM) programs to fit your schedule and fleet size. Our maintenance and repair technicians are fully trained to work on every brand of forklift. A periodic maintenance plan will ensure that your forklift will be maintained at the proper times by a qualified technician. We offer a wide range of sizes and types of forklifts to rent if repairs are necessary.
What kind of training is required to operate a forklift?
All forklift operators must have a valid driver’s license and must complete a detailed forklift safety training course. In addition, the operator must be trained on the actual forklift that he or she will be operating. OSHA has specific requirements that can be found at OSHA.gov. Royal Forklift offers OSHA-approved classroom training that can be tailored to your type of lift truck or application(s). Training is done on-site and consists of safety videos, safety test, and a driving test and/or evaluation in the area the unit operates.
For safety and productivity, it’s important to have the right forklift for your application and work environment. If you need high-quality new forklifts in Allentown, PA, contact Royal Forklift at (570) 915-4103 to find out how we can help.
