How much can the 6 tonne rough terrain forklift lift?
This machine has a maximum lift capacity of 6,000 kg and a maximum lift height of 4.37 m. It is built for heavy-duty outdoor lifting where high capacity and the ability to work on uneven ground are both required.
When should I choose a 6T rough terrain forklift over a standard forklift?
