tires, 6,000-pound, 144 to 180-inch lift.

(a) Type of power-diesel, gasoline, or

electric.

(b) Load center-24 inches.

(c) Standard operating aisle-13 feet 4

inches with 40-inch load length.

(d) Application-Basic, heavy-duty truck

for indoor or outdoor storage operations, principally

shipping and receiving. The truck may also be used to

handle and stack loads in low ceiling areas such as

vaults at ports of embarkation (depending on mast

height). Although mast height may permit entry into

vans and railcars, the weight of the truck and lack of

maneuverability must be taken into consideration before

the truck is used for direct loading or unloading. The

truck may be used to transfer heavy or bulky loads from

railcars to a tractor-trailer train. Electric-powered forklift

trucks are recommended for use indoors (fig 4-18).
