Used Caterpillar Container Forklift Chula Vista

A container forklift is specifically used to load and unload large, heavy freight containers. They are utilized to transport freight on and off truck beds, trains and ships. Container forklifts are the most sturdy and largest types of forklifts manufactured. They need to be extremely maneuverable on uneven terrain and have sufficient torque and power to safely lift bulky containers. They typically have heavy-duty diesel engines and big pneumatic tires.

A container forklift, like all types of forklift, utilizes forks to be able to raise the containers. Forks must be positioned to ensure the load is secure during transport. Various types of container forklifts are only designed to lift the containers a few meters off the ground. Other container handlers utilize a different method for lifting containers to greater heights. A container handler makes use of a device attached to the front of the vehicle to clamp down on either end of the container like jaws. The machine is counterbalanced with weights to maintain stability.

The main purpose of a container forklift is to lift and transfer containers. Standard forklifts do not have enough reach for working in ports. The forks are rated according to the maximum weight they can handle. The capabilities of the forklift must be posted prominently in the cockpit and must never be exceeded.
