Definition: Diesel Forklifts 
The Diesel Forklifts are larger, more powerful, and are mostly used outdoors. As the name implies, they are propelled by a diesel engine. As a result, they emit harmful green house fumes.

Benefits:
They are more fuel efficient than gas forklifts. The higher torque makes them better on gradients and more powerful for towing duties than other types of forklifts. The cost of fuel is cheaper than gas forklifts. Have a longer engine shelf life than gas forklifts.  

What are the advantages of Diesel forklifts?
– Ideal for outside applications and able to function at full capacity in wet or damp weather, the diesel powered forklift is traditionally less expensive to purchase than the LPG, petrol, or electric powered forklifts.
– Easily accessible 24 hours a day, there’s no downtime with this option since the user simply needs to refill the tank with diesel fuel when it gets low versus having to wait to change the LPG cylinder or recharge its battery..
– No extra space must be reserved for a special battery charging station for a diesel forklift, it can be parked wherever it is convenient.
– The overall performance of a diesel powered forklift including its acceleration capabilities and lift speeds is superior to its counterpart. Further, the capacity of this forklift battery can easily handle the addition and use of any necessary hydraulic attachments, conversely, the more components that access power from the electric forklift’s battery, the quicker that battery and the overall power of the electric forklift are drained.
