The primary differences between four-point and three-point configurations lie in stability and maneuverability. Thanks to a larger support base, four-point forklifts offer superior resistance to tipping over when lifting full loads, making them particularly well-suited for operations on rough terrain or in environments requiring frequent turning. However, this design typically results in a larger minimum turning radius (1,860 mm for this model), offering less agility in narrow aisles compared to three-point models. Differences between battery-electric and internal combustion (IC) power systems are evident in terms of operating range, maintenance requirements, and power response.
Battery-electric forklifts (such as this model) feature a loaded travel speed of 16 km/h and a loaded lifting speed of 420 mm/s-performance metrics comparable to IC forklifts of the same tonnage; however, they require periodic charging, and battery lifespan is significantly influenced by charging and discharging habits. While IC forklifts offer the convenience of quick refueling, they generate exhaust emissions and noise, and entail higher maintenance costs. Fork dimensions (40 x 100 x 1,000 mm) directly determine the types and sizes of pallets that can be handled; users must ensure that the fork length and thickness are compatible with the openings and load distribution of the pallets typically used in their operations.
