Forklifts are very expensive pieces of machines. A five thousand pound new electric model could cost between eighteen thousand to twenty five thousand and several thousands of dollars more would be invested for a battery and a battery charger. The same internal combustion lift truck of similar lift capacity would cost slightly less and the diesel models which are capable of heavier lifting capacities can cost upwards of one hundred thousand dollars. Reconditioned forklifts are an option so as to save a great deal of cash since they cost less than half the price of brand new units.
Some individuals think they will face more maintenance issues if they obtain a reconditioned forklift and are skeptical of obtaining a second-hand lift truck at a sale price. A correctly reconditioned lift truck would perform just as well as a new one and whatever fears of upkeep are unfounded. Even though your lift will get heavy use, as long as you take proper care of the equipment, it will serve all your needs and probably save you a lot of cash.
It is essential to determine what the seller means by a reconditioned or refurbished lift truck when thinking about buying a second-hand lift truck. Many businesses do a very good job reconditioning a model before selling it. This consists of disassembling the forklift, rebuilding the engine, sandblasting the lift and after that reassembling everything and finishing with a fresh coat of paint.
To properly and thoroughly reconstruct a lift truck engine, a good business will completely disassemble it. A heat cleaning system can then be utilized to clean all the parts. As soon as this step has been completed, all of the parts are checked to see if they have any breakage, any extensive wear or any defects. Certain parts like for instance cylinder heads, crankshafts, cylinder blocks and connecting rods are reground, resurfaced and resized if needed. Various parts like bolts, gears, nuts and that. are replaced or repaired as needed.
The engine is rebuilt manually as soon as the overhaul has been finished. After putting it back together, a series of tests are applied to the running equipment. This is done in order to check all of the parts to guarantee there are no problems or leaks. If any problems occur, the crucial adjustments are done.
Toyota Industries Corporation, as the parent company, has instilled a rich company doctrine of environmental stewardship in Toyota. Not many other companies and no other lift truck maker can equal Toyota’s record of caring for the environment while simultaneously encouraging the economy. Environmental accountability is an important characteristic of corporate decision making at Toyota and they are proud to be the first and only manufacturer to provide UL-listed, EPA- and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift trucks. Yet one more reason they remain a leader within the industry.
Toyota first introduced the 8-Series line of lift vehicles in 2006, yet again exhibiting its leadership and innovation in the industry. Featuring an exclusive emission system that eclipsed both Federal EPA emission standards, and San Francisco's more environmentally friendly emission standards. The finished product is a lift truck that produces 70% less smog forming emissions than the present Federal standards allow.
What's more in 2006, Toyota developed a partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation, furthering their responsibility to the environment. More than 57,000 trees have been planted in local parks and national forests damaged by ecological reasons such as fires, as a result of this partnership. 10,500 seedlings have also been distributed through Toyota Industrial Equipment’s network of sellers to non-profit organizations and local consumers to help sustain communities all over the U.S.
Industry-Leading Safety
Toyota’s lift trucks provide enhanced output, visibility, ergonomics and durability, and most importantly, the industry’s leading safety technology. The company’s System of Active Stability, often known as “SAS”, helps reduce the possibility of incidents and injuries, and increasing productivity levels while minimizing the potential for product and equipment breakage.
System Active Stability can sense situations that could lead to lateral instability and likely lateral overturn. When any of these factors have been sensed, the SAS will immediately engage the Swing Lock Cylinder to re-stabilize the rear axle. This adjusts the lift truck’s stability trajectory from triangular in shape to rectangular, offering a major increase in stability which substantially reduces the probability of a mishap from a lateral overturn. The Active Mast Function Controller or the Active Control Rear Stabilizer also assists to avoid injuries or accidents while adding stability.
SAS was initially released to the market on the 7-Series internal combustion models in 1999 and subsequently catapulted Toyota into the industry leader for safety. Since then, SAS continues to be integrated into nearly all of Toyota’s internal combustion models. It is standard equipment on the new 8-Series. There are more than 100,000 SAS-equipped lift vehicles in operation, exceeding 450 million hours combined. The increased population of SAS-equipped vehicles in the field, along with obligatory operator education, overturn fatalities across all designs have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Furthermore, there have been an overall 35.5% drop in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and overturn from a lift vehicle for the same period.
Toyota’s uncompromising principles extend far beyond the technology itself. The company believes in offering general Operator Safety Training programs to help users meet and exceed OSHA standard 1910.178. Instruction courses, video lessons and various materials, covering a wide scope of subjects—from individual safety, to OSHA policies, to surface and load conditions, are available through the seller network.
Toyota's U.S. Commitment
Toyota has sustained a relentless existence in the United States ever since its first sale. In 2009, Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, created its 350,000th lift truck. This reality is demonstrated by the statistic that 99% of Toyota lift trucks sold in America now are built in the United States.
