Hey guys,
I'm about to buy my first forklift and would appreciate any advice you might have because I've never owned one before. I'm mainly looking into buying one for between $3,000 and $5,000 from a private seller (I've never been a fan of retail ). It needs to be capable of lifting pallets of plywood. Here are my main concerns:
1) Is there any brand / model to stay away from?
2) Is there any brand that's considered low cost to service when stuff breaks?
3) Is it feasible for me to fix things myself on it or is it highly specialized?
Thanks,
Paul
