As one of the globe's best forklift makers, Clark has over 350,000 units in operation internationally. Clark forklifts are used at different work locations including big warehouse applications, food processing facilities, grocery stores and retail environments. A forklift is designed to transport large or heavy objects efficiently and easily from one place to another.
You could find used Clark forklifts for sale in various outlets. Before looking at the vast range of used Clark forklifts available, you must consider exactly what you will be using it for. If you need a forklift every day as part of a larger fleet, then it may be better to spend more money on a newer model. However, if you will only be utilizing it on a short term basis or sporadically, you could search for a more heavily used, older lift truck.
Newer models of Clark forklifts come on the used truck market often due to the expiration of leases with companies that rent rather than purchase lift trucks. These former lease trucks normally cost 10-15% more than lift trucks being sold by the owner.
Before purchasing any used forklift, it is better to have someone who is an expert to inspect it first. You may miss problems that a professional would catch. You also need to look at the safety levels and current state of repair of the used forklift, especially the brakes and the mast and its state of mobility. Good brakes are very important in forklifts as nearly all forklift accidents are connected with braking issues.
