Internal combustion counterbalanced lift trucks

Internal combustion engine trucks are powered by liquid propane, compressed natural gas, diesel or gasoline. Lift trucks that are powered by gasoline or diesel are usually large trucks designed for outdoor use. They either have cushion tires made of solid rubber suited to driving on floors indoors or pneumatic tires appropriate for driving on steep inclines and rough terrain.



Internal combustion counterbalanced lift trucks with cushion tires are categorized as Class 4 trucks by the ITA. Trucks with pneumatic tires are Class 5.



Liquid propane is normally utilized to power indoor lift trucks. These kinds of trucks have some advantages. They are capable of achieving higher speeds and could provide consistent power during operation. They don't need to be refueled as frequently as lift trucks powered by other sources. Propane cylinders don't take up a lot of space and can be stored anywhere. The cylinders could be easily switched out by a trained operator.



Internal combustion trucks are easily refueled and this is its benefit. The disadvantages are air-pollution and too much noise.
