Internal combustion counterbalanced lift trucks

Diesel, gasoline, liquid propane or compressed natural gas can be utilized to fuel an internal combustion engine truck. Lift trucks that are powered by gasoline or diesel are usually large trucks utilized outdoors. They either have pneumatic tires suitable for driving on steep inclines and rough terrains, or cushion tires made of solid rubber suited to driving on floors indoors.



The ITA categorizes internal combustion counterbalanced lift trucks with cushion tires as Class 4 trucks. Class 5 are trucks which have pneumatic tires.



Liquid propane is usually used to power indoor lift trucks. These kinds of trucks have some benefits. They could provide consistent power during operation and are capable of achieving higher speeds. They don't have to be refueled as frequently as lift trucks powered by other sources. Propane cylinders can be stored anywhere since they don't take up much space. The cylinders can be easily switched out by a qualified operator.



The advantage of internal combustion trucks is that they are easily refueled. The drawbacks are excessive noise and air-pollution.
