Definition: What is an Electric Forklift?
The Electric Forklift is a forklift truck powered by an electric motor using rechargeable traction batteries. Electric Forklifts are available in 3-wheel and 4-wheel design configurations

Benefits:
In their lifetime, Electric Forklifts cost less for fuel, require lower maintenance as they have fewer moving parts, needless fluids to replace like engine oil, coolant, and filters, and have considerably fewer lost hours from maintenance downtime and breakdowns.  

Every model of forklift has its own unique advantages. Using the right forklift for your application is important for both safety and productivity. Electric Forklifts are a great fit for warehouses and manufacturing facilities that require primarily indoor use. If your application requires indoor use and fumes or noise are a factor, then an Electric Forklift may be your buy.

Advantages of Electric Forklifts:

• Operating costs can be lower than internal combustion models.
• Electric forklifts charge at a charging station, so there is no need for fuel storage.
• The cost of electricity can be significantly lower than the cost of fuel or LPG gas.
• Electric forklifts produce zero emissions during operation.
• No noise with the exception of the backup alarm.
• Automatic braking reduces wear and reduces fatigue for the operator.
• Electric forklifts do not require engine oil, coolant fluids and filters, so replacing and disposing of these fluids is not necessary.
• Longer maintenance intervals.
• Electric Forklifts are more compact and need a lesser turning radius.
