What Capacity forklift do I use??

I am a bit confused as to what capacity diesel forklift I use for a load as described below.

Load:-
Approximate Max Weight:- 2.5 tons or 2500 kg
Length:- 12 feet {this is critical, load has to be picked and transported length wise}
Width:- 3 feet 6 inches
Hieght:- 2 ft 8 inches.

Could I get some help from someone !!!

Secondly is there any formulae to calculate the de-rating of a forklft depending on the change in the Load Center.

Thanks

Gordon, go to the website rightline dot com. They have a capacity calculator right on the home page that I use all of the time and it is pretty accurate. Just plug in the numbers.

No one can be told what the Matrix is, you have to see it for yourself.
