Forklifts are mobile machinery that utilize 2 forks or prongs in order to place loads into positions that will normally be difficult to reach. Normally, forklifts fall into 2 major categories: rough-terrain and industrial.

Industrial forklifts are most often utilized around truck and train loading docks in addition to many warehouse operation. These machines have smaller tires that are engineered to run on paved surfaces. Typically, industrial forklifts are powered by an internal gasoline engine running on propane or diesel fuel.

There are several smaller industrial lift truck models that utilize an electric motor running off an internal battery. As the name implies, rough terrain forklifts are designed to run on rough and unpaved surfaces. Commonly, they are the ideal alternative for military and construction operation. Rough terrain forklifts normally have big pneumatic tires that are generally powered by internal industrial engines that run on diesel or propane fuel.
