Kalmar AC forklifts

Hello all.
After some online research it appears that Kalmar no longer offers forklifts less than 10,000# basic capacity. We service some of the smaller units in our area and I have always been an AC fan. Any idea why Kalmar AC would no longer be in this market?

JJ, Yes you are correct. You should be able to obtain most AC/Kalmar AC parts through your local Komatsu Forklift USA dealer.

There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept.

The Kalmar AC brand name was changed to the TUSK brand several years ago , then the Tusk brand was later discontinued. The Kalmar AC & Tusk units they were are the same units as Komatsu except for paint & decals.
I believe you still can get service parts for the older AC unit thru Komatsu.
