Strong

Forklifts are used to lift heavy objects and equipment. Because they are required in some businesses, they will be used every day by the workers. With that being said, they should have a powerful engine and also be made from durable materials.

The newest forklift has an improved residual capacity, a nested upright trail, a fully welded heavy gauge frame, and a durable steering axle.

It is commonly used in environments such as construction sites and warehouses that have heavy and hazardous objects such as metals and building materials. Accidents such as overloading, turnovers, and injury can happen. That’s why safety protocols and rules should be observed when doing so.

Aside from improvements in technology and design, The Clark Forklift S-series is also built to keep its users safe. Because of the improvements in both, it can help prevent accidents and slip-ups in the workplace. One example is the wet disc brake which improved the stopping power of the forklift.

This forklift can also help its users to operate in narrow and dark environments because of the cushioned tires and safety LED lights. The automatic parking brake is also helpful to avoid sudden crashes while idling while the speed reduction helps regulate driving.

Aside from environmental visibility, the load lifted can also be monitored through the screen.
