Whilst trying to find lift trucks in and around Edinburgh EH91 you might like to note that you can expect to achieve an average of 12 hours running time from a standard gas fuelled truck with a four cylinder engine. A full tank of gas will generally last for to 4 days even if the forklift is in use eight hours a day, as time spent getting on and off the forklift reduces the actual running time during the shift.
If you are researching lift trucks in and around Edinburgh EH91 you may wish to know that a business was fined over £50,000 when an employee was crushed to death. A forklift driver had performed an emergency stop while going round a corner in order to avoid hitting another member of staff. However the sudden braking caused the goods being carried to fall off and pin the man to the ground. The court found that no risk assessments had been carried out and that there was no system to safely separate pedestrians from vehicles on the site.
While looking for lift trucks in and around Edinburgh EH91 bear in mind that productivity can be improved if your new forklift has a higher drive and lifting speed and that this may offset any additional costs incurred in the higher purchase price.
