INGERSOLL RAND 8L SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

Technical Description

The Ingersoll Rand 8L is a robust telescopic forklift engineered for heavy-duty material handling operations requiring extended reach and significant lifting capacity. Powered by a turbocharged diesel engine generating 115 horsepower (86 kW), this machine delivers reliable performance in demanding industrial environments. The forklift features an impressive maximum forward reach of 27 feet and can achieve a maximum lift height of 41.1 feet, making it ideal for stacking operations in warehouses and distribution centers with high ceiling clearances. The 8L maintains a maximum lift capacity of 7,998.4 pounds throughout its operational range, with the capability to sustain full load capacity at maximum height. At maximum reach, the machine safely handles 1,999.6 pounds, demonstrating its engineered load distribution characteristics. The transmission system incorporates a 4-speed power shift design with four forward and four reverse gears, providing smooth acceleration and directional control. Dimensionally, the forklift measures 20.1 feet from the ground to the fork face with an overall height of 7.9 feet and width over tires of 8.3 feet. The wheelbase extends 10.9 feet with a turning radius of 12.2 feet outside the tires, offering reasonable maneuverability for its size class. Ground clearance stands at 15.8 inches, appropriate for standard industrial surfaces. The operating weight totals 24,497.8 pounds, supported by a 30-gallon fuel capacity and 45-gallon hydraulic system fluid capacity, ensuring extended operational periods between servicing intervals in continuous duty applications.
