DESCRIPTION

Unit has been re-listed - when buyer showed up to get it he realized just how old and ugly it is, his wife didn't like it and when he attempted to have it loaded on his trailer by driving up ramps it was hesitate on doing just that, will crank, run and operate, pull itself around but climbing up some trailer ramps is asking a lot out of it, but as stated below you will need to service it, lube it, repair some lines, etc. before putting to work regularly, few filters and some fresh hydraulic fluid probably go a long way~

Located in Mississippi, this forklift was owned by a Parish Government agency in our neighboring State of Louisiana, was obviously given to them or passed down from the Federal Government, has slightly under 300 hours on it and not really used by the Parish Government after being passed down, after hauling it back to our location we put fresh fuel in it and hot batteries, fuel pump was not working so we replaced it, unit fired right up and then we repaired a flat/leaking tire, several hydraulic cylinders started leaking and need to be repacked, lift does operate and run properly, engine runs good, transmission operates, hydraulics are good, unit has been sitting up for years, many years and most of the issues it has or needing to be repaired are from it sitting up for so long, would suggest a complete servicing/lubing, repack some cylinders and probably some hoses when you start using, all of that is a result of sitting up not being used, lift is old, is ugly, been sitting forever and will need some attention before you start using it daily, you will need to go ahead and service with new oil, filters, etc., probably not a bad idea to go ahead do belts, grease/lube the whole machine, repack some cylinders, get ready to replace some lines, the tires are also showing dry rot but once you get past the machine sitting up for years you must remember it is a very low hour forklift that will give someone years of service, we are selling this unit with a bill of sale and AS-IS but guaranteed to run and operate~

The photos and video were taken the day of the listing on July 19, 2019 and show the forklift in its current condition!  Please take the time to look at complete description, view all the photos and the videos of the forklift so you will know what you are getting. We do encourage you to come inspect the unit, put your own eyes on it, send a message and we will reply with location/driving directions, for those who can’t come to our location please rest assured that I always have my photographer take as many photos and videos to show the item in its current condition which should allow you to make a good decision on what you are willing to bid and what you are buying, please remember the unit has NO RESERVE.

Please understand that we sell items using the auction format which is normally a 7 or 10 day listing with no reserve, that normally produces what would be considered a wholesale price, we are not a retail outlet with retail prices and we do not make the item we are selling perfect in any way, some items are better than others, some are rough, some are nice, we list them and explain exactly as they are at the time of the listing, since we are not asking or expecting full retail then you will probably have to do something, may not be anything but a simple service or extra cleaning, WE HAVE NOT SPENT DAYS INSPECTING, PAINTING, REPAIRING AND SERVICING THIS ITEM AS A FULL RETAIL OUTLET MAY DO! 

This item is being sold strictly on classifieds board with no reserve and a $1.00 starting bid, not for sale locally and will sell to the highest bidder regardless of price!

NO RESERVE OVER STARTING BID PRICE!  UNIT IS NOT FOR SALE LOCALLY, ONLY OFFERED ON classifieds board WITH NO RESERVE, NO BUY IT NOW, NO PRICE AVAILABLE TO BUY IT NOW, STRICTLY ON classifieds board WITH NO RESERVE, IF YOU WANT THE MOWER PLEASE BID.  DO NOT CALL ASKING A PRICE OR TRYING TO BUY THIS AWAY FROM THE AUCTION, WE REPEAT YOU MUST BID TO BUY, NO EXCEPTIONS~

ALL ITEMS WE LIST ARE SOLD “AS IS WHERE IS”!

~ This is a true, no reserve, absolute auction without a minimum or any type price, for several years now we have done this with all our listings, sometimes they bring more than we expect and sometimes less, look at our feedback and view some of the items we have sold, just remember when the bidding ends it’s over, high bidder is the high bidder and we move on~

~ We do not sell items before an auction ends and also do not offer items for sale locally or away from classifieds board, the only way to buy an item from us is auction style on classifieds board with no reserve!

~ We also do not offer or send 2nd chance offers, if you receive one from us then please ignore or report to classifieds board because it is a scam, we sell on classifieds board auction style with no reserve to the highest bidder, in the event the high bidder does not pay or does not take the item then we simply re-list and sell again to the highest bidder~

Thanks for visiting our classifieds board listing.

Unit has been re-listed - when buyer showed up to get it he realized just how old and ugly it is, his wife didn't like it and when he attempted to have it loaded on his trailer by driving up ramps it was hesitate on doing just that, will crank, run and operate, pull itself around but climbing up some trailer ramps is asking a lot out of it, but as stated below you will need to service it, lube it, repair some lines, etc. before putting to work regularly, few filters and some fresh hydraulic fluid probably go a long way~

Located in Mississippi, this forklift was owned by a Parish Government agency in our neighboring State of Louisiana, was obviously given to them or passed down from the Federal Government, has slightly under 300 hours on it and not really used by the Parish Government after being passed down, after hauling it back to our location we put fresh fuel in it and hot batteries, fuel pump was not working so we replaced it, unit fired right up and then we repaired a flat/leaking tire, several hydraulic cylinders started leaking and need to be repacked, lift does operate and run properly, engine runs good, transmission operates, hydraulics are good, unit has been sitting up for years, many years and most of the issues it has or needing to be repaired are from it sitting up for so long, would suggest a complete servicing/lubing, repack some cylinders and probably some hoses when you start using, all of that is a result of sitting up not being used, lift is old, is ugly, been sitting forever and will need some attention before you start using it daily, you will need to go ahead and service with new oil, filters, etc., probably not a bad idea to go ahead do belts, grease/lube the whole machine, repack some cylinders, get ready to replace some lines, the tires are also showing dry rot but once you get past the machine sitting up for years you must remember it is a very low hour forklift that will give someone years of service, we are selling this unit with a bill of sale and AS-IS but guaranteed to run and operate~

The photos and video were taken the day of the listing on July 19, 2019 and show the forklift in its current condition!  Please take the time to look at complete description, view all the photos and the videos of the forklift so you will know what you are getting. We do encourage you to come inspect the unit, put your own eyes on it, send a message and we will reply with location/driving directions, for those who can’t come to our location please rest assured that I always have my photographer take as many photos and videos to show the item in its current condition which should allow you to make a good decision on what you are willing to bid and what you are buying, please remember the unit has NO RESERVE.
