FAQ About New Forklifts Q1: What power options are available for Archer Machinery forklifts?
We offer a full range of brand-new forklifts with three main power types: Diesel for heavy-duty outdoor use, Electric (Lead-acid) for indoor warehousing, and the latest Lithium-ion (Li-be) technology for fast charging and zero maintenance. Our lineup includes top brands like HELI, HANGCHA, and NOBLELIFT.
Q2: How do I choose the right mast height and type?
Selecting the mast depends on your shelf height and doorway clearance. We provide 2-stage standard masts, 2-stage full free masts (ideal for container loading), and 3-stage full free masts for high-reach applications (up to 7 meters or more). Archer Machinery can help you match the mast to your specific warehouse layout.
Q3: Can these forklifts be customized with specialized attachments?
Yes. Beyond standard forks, we can factory-equip your forklift with side shifters, paper roll clamps, bale clamps, rotators, or multi-pallet handlers. Purchasing a new unit allows us to ensure the hydraulic valves and hosing are perfectly integrated at the factory level.
Q4: What is the benefit of Lithium-ion over traditional Electric forklifts?
Our new Lithium-ion forklifts offer “opportunity charging” (charging during breaks), a longer lifespan (up to 10 years), and require no water refilling or dedicated charging rooms. They are the most cost-effective solution for multi-shift operations in modern logistics.
Q5: How do I maintain my forklift fleet’s performance?
To minimize downtime, all common wear parts—including solid tires, hydraulic seals, forks, and filters—are available for global shipping through our specialized parts store: www.archerparts.com.
