FAQ

Is the LP tank included?
No. The forklift is LPG-ready, but the propane tank is not included.

Can it work outdoors?
Yes. Solid pneumatic tires handle paved yards, gravel and uneven docks better than cushion tires, and they will not go flat.

Can I add attachments?
The standard side shifter and adjustable forks cover most pallet work. Contact us for other attachments, mast heights or fork lengths.

How is it delivered?
Units ship by freight truck from EKKO. Inspect the forklift on arrival and note any damage on the delivery receipt with photos before signing.
