 Not real pretty, but it runs and operates fine with no leaks

Lift Height of 105"

We are selling this:  Gasoline Powered!!!  Cushion Tired!!!  As Arrived and Checked Out Mechanically!!! Forklift.  Now available for your inspection and purchase at our warehouse in beautiful downtown Miamisburg, Ohio is this good operating Caterpillar Model T50C, 5000# Capacity, Gasoline Powered, Forklift, manufactured new in 1981.  This unit is in good operating condition throughout.  It is powered by very strong Waukasha Four (4) Cylinder OHV Gasoline Motor (a good engine) and a strong single speed, forward and reverse, automatic transmissions.  The mast is two (2) stage, measuring 71" in the lowered position and the forks will lift to a maximum height of 105".  The class II forks are 4" wide X 48" long and will spread to a width of 30" inside to inside of the forks.  This forklift operates just fine.  The tires are good at 85% all around.  The width of this unit is 42" and the overall length is 90" plus the fork length.  The overall height measures 83" from the floor to the top of the overhead guard.  It weighs approx. 8,600#.  This forklift came out of service about 30 years ago and we're just getting around to selling it.  We have rented it off and on since we purchased it because it was the only gasoline powered forklift we owned that would go through a 6' door (with the ROPS removed) and some users need a forklift for that low of a door that runs on gasoline (not many but a few and we aim to please).  The company it came from (Federal Express) 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 Manufacturers OEM parts.  Since then we have maintained it and we're good.  The hour meter on this forklift shows only 1656 total hours but we feel certain it is not accurate. 

If you are in need of a forklift of this size and have a tight budget, take a real good look here.  This is a good running forklift, a decent looking forklift, and it is a Caterpillar (one of the most popular forklifts made).  This is an opportunity to pick up a real bargain in a gasoline powered, cushion tired forklift at a small portion of what these babies cost new.  This is not a beautiful forklift but it runs and operates just fine and it has no leaks.  Load rating is 5,000# @ 24" LC.
