the first thing when asking on advise when purchasing a lift is to let us know what application you intend on using it for?

whatever the task this machine is going to be used for will be VERY helpful in getting advise on what type of lift you should get.

There are so many to choose from

Let us know what your operation entails and what all the lift will have to be doing? unloading trucks? in a warehouse or out in the yard? narrow aisle? orderpicking? freezer? pallet handling? barrel handling? the applications are fairly wide to just guess at it.
