Discussion:
European Forklift

I need a 16000 kg forklift and I find some European options like Kalmar and Linde, I have to tell.. In suth America sometimes it's really hard to find replacement parts even for the American ones so y think could be harder to find the euro ones, the point is why to choose an euro equipment ?? (most say there is no to many U.S options)

Thanks.

Michaelsantana,

Seeing as how your avatar is a picture of a Cat in the size you need why are you not considering them?

Try speaking to TVH, they supply parts for various brands of forklift worldwide & have locations in south America.

You might have to wait a couple of days for parts if the local outlet hasnt got the part on the shelf but TVH can get pretty much anything for most common forklifts very quickly.

Linde do make the best normal sized IC counterbalance's, no idea what there 16 ton truck will be like.
