YULI product range

Forklift Types We Manufacture and Supply

Every category below is represented in the YULI product catalog. Capacities and lift heights shown are catalog ranges; final specifications depend on model and configuration.

Understand the terminology

Forklifts are classified in three different ways

“Forklift type” can describe the truck’s design, power source or operating environment. These categories overlap: a three-wheel counterbalance truck can also be electric and used indoors.

By truck design

Counterbalance, reach truck, pallet stacker, rough-terrain forklift and telehandler describe the physical layout and primary function.

By power source

Electric, diesel and LPG/dual-fuel describe how the truck is powered and affect charging, refueling, emissions and site suitability.

By operating need

Warehouse, narrow-aisle, outdoor, uneven-ground and heavy-duty applications determine tire, chassis, mast and capacity requirements.
