CATERPILLAR P30000 SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

The Caterpillar P30000 is a heavy-duty pneumatic tire forklift engineered for demanding material handling operations. Powered by a 6-cylinder diesel engine displacing 460 cubic inches, it delivers 148 horsepower at 2100 rpm and generates 450 foot-pounds of torque, providing robust performance for extended work shifts. The machine features a sophisticated lifting system capable of hoisting loads up to 29,762 pounds with a load center of 23.7 inches, operating at a lift and lower speed of 79 feet per minute. The mast is designed with dual articulation angles of 15 degrees forward and 12 degrees rear tilt, enabling precise load positioning and improved visibility. With pneumatic tires and six-wheel configuration—four front and two rear—the forklift achieves excellent traction and stability on diverse terrain while maintaining a maximum operational speed of 18 miles per hour. The machine measures 14.9 feet from mast to fork face with an overall width of 8.6 feet, and when fully lowered, reaches 11.5 feet in height, facilitating operation in standard warehouse environments. Its 13.7-foot turning radius and 9.2-foot wheelbase provide maneuverability in confined spaces, while the 10.3-inch ground clearance ensures obstacle clearance on uneven surfaces. Weighing 41,293 pounds when operational, the P30000 combines substantial lifting capacity with reliable diesel propulsion, making it an ideal choice for high-volume material handling in outdoor and indoor industrial settings.
