Tip – If you are searching for leasing counterbalance forktrucks near scotland and are considering a second hand machine remember to treat the purchase in a similar way to how you would buy a second hand car. Check out the machine as much as possible, test drive it and look for a service or maintenance history.

While investigating leasing counterbalance forktrucks in and around scotland take into account the physical restrictions of the areas in which a machine will have to operate. In particular consider any doorways through which your forklift will have to move. If your doorways are standard 1.8m (6ft) or 2.4m (8ft) high then you obviously wont be able to use a machine with a collapsed mast height of over 3m (10ft). Before making your selection make sure that all the doorways and openings that it will need to fit through have been measured.
