Well that's a heck of a price for a forklift ! An definitely worth putting a little time or money into.Me ,not the same luck.I bought mine for a good deal (,I thought )but unfortunately being an shop owner I've had the opportunity to research and understand some of the LP process's on a forklift and what makes then tick,Fun fun.
But another thing, if ya did get it for bout nuttin and it's a decent truck,I'd get with the manufacture and have a certified mechanic come and run through it.Then it's done and done right and guaranteed too. A good reliable truck is priceless , well in my line of business it is.
