Hi everyone
I have to recondition CROWN Triloaders to 100%, aprox year manufacture 1998. They are in very bad conditions. The model that i need information is 30TSP, or 15TSPTN.
Have you any information about this trucks? specialy info about the electronics system, diagrams and programming.
Please help me
Thanks

Someday I'll figure out why forklift trucks are in a different catagory than anything else in the world.
They, like eberything else in the world. are worth what you are willing to pay for them. If you aren't familiar with what you are buying then you probably shouldn't buy it.

Dear Sir :
In your hand you have the TSP ?
Can you tell me more detail specification ?
I am intersted in these machines !

Your biggest concerns would be to negotiate the unite over and breakover poinst that are common at msot door way openings for drainage purposes. These unit have a realtively low clearance from the floor to the undercarriage (frame) and they stand a good chance to get hung up at this point. Also these unit typically have polyurethane drive & load wheels which are designed for operationtin on smooth finished concrete found in warehouses. Most out side surfaces are rough brushed concrete or asphalt. - you'll eat oup teh wheel or get stuck in the ashaphal as it is a much softer than concrete.

ALSO I forgot - I purchased them from the State and the Vendor (Crown Rep) or anyone associated in anyway with providing services to the State or could be directly related to employee's of either the State or Vendor's etc could not bid on them...................

thank you so much for a response! re transport - yes as ignorant as I am about these things - why couldn't I just drive them across the street (is it too uneven?) they can drive out the doors of the warehouse they are in and I am talking with a container shipper across the street about renting some space and or having them tip them over (after I take the batteries out) and set them on a flat bed in 1 piece (I realize this is abnormal but most things I do are)

i will add my agreement is to pay $10,100 for them (all 8 units)

thanks in advance for your next response - still think it's a waste of time and energy????

Just a few things for you to think about:
1. Turret trucks are "special" application machines especially with a 531" mast = small market potential = low chance to turn over your investment. If the machines were in good shape and there was a good market for them - the dealer who sold the new units would want to keep them to sell as profitable used equipment that consume far more service parts (good profit too) and require service labor (very good profit margins as well) than new equipment. Do yourself a favor ust call a few dealers around town and ask them what the market potetnional is for used "turret" machines w/these specifications, age and hours.
2. It would seem somewhat difficult to transport these machines without some disassembly. You need to know what the overall lowered heights of the machines are. You need to consider not only the dock door heights at the facility they are in so you can get them out, but also bridge/overpass heights limits (if you plan to trnsport on a trailer - standard bed or low boy trailer), and the door heights of facility you plan to store them in. Lifting equipment needed to load & unload? How to load them on a trailer? Or when you say you plan to drive them to a warehouse, hope you didn't mean get on the units and turn the key on and literally drive them down the street.
3. If the units have 14,000 to 17,000 hours on them (which seems quite high to me) and still have 4 to 6 years of good life per the Crown tech why would the customer want to replace them? They are a bit expensive you know.
4. You also need to consider an investment in a charger at the warehouse for these units - meaning charger & electrical hook up expenses, as no doubt the units will need to be charged at a point in time, if you decide to go ahead w/this venture.
5. If you would ask me if I would invest in these machines - I would reply NOT. I advise someone in the used office furniture, liquidated parts and equipment business, over 2 years ago not to invest in two 6000 lb. sit down electric rider lifts w/low hours (less than 3000) but with 276 " 4 stage masts w/batteries & chargers. He still has them - the mast size was a special application mast. The batteries are probably shot now, as he has not charged them.

Just a few things to consider & think about.
