We are selling this:  LPG Powered!!!  Cushion Tired!!!  and Completely Checked Out Mechanically!!! Forklift.  Now available for your inspection and/or purchase at our warehouse in beautiful downtown Miamisburg, Ohio is this fine operating  Caterpillar Model C5500, 5500# Capacity, LPG Powered, Forklift, S/N AT83F01280, manufactured new in 2006.  This unit is in excellent operating condition throughout.  It is powered by very strong Nissan Four (4) Cylinder OHC LPG Motor (a fine engine) and a strong single speed, forward and reverse, automatic transmission.  The mast is three (3) stage, measuring 83" in the lowered position and the forks will lift to a maximum height of 186".  The class IIi forks are 5" wide X 48" long and will spread to a width of 25" inside to inside of the forks. This forklift operates great.  The tires are TREADED ON THE FRONT AT 85% AND SMOOTH ON THE REAR AT 80%.  The width of this unit is 41" and the overall length is 91" plus the fork length.  The overall height measures 83" from the floor to the top of the mast and overhead guard.  It weighs approx. 9,250#.  This forklift came out of service about a week ago.  The company it came from (a large motor manufacturing company) has their own maintenance department for their forklifts and they have as fine of a maintenance program as we have ever seen.  All of their forklifts are serviced regularly and anything found to be wrong is repaired immediately with Genuine Brand Name OEM parts.  The hour meter on this forklift reads ONLY 4054 total hours.  Like I said, they really take good care of their forklifts.  This forklift has Headlights, Taillights, Back Up Warning w/ flashing light, back up lights, Rearview Mirrors, Horn, and Tilt Steering Wheel. 

If you are in need of an excellent, late model high lifting forklift of this size, with side shift, and the additional advantage of 48" long forks, take a real good look here.  This is a great running forklift, a not-so-beautiful looking forklift, and it is a Caterpillar (one of the better forklifts made).  This is an opportunity to pick up a real bargain in an LPG powered cushion tired forklift at a small portion of what these babies cost new.  This forklift runs and operates great.  Load rating is 5,500# @ 24" LC.
