LIFT KING LK80R SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

Technical Description

The Lift King LK80R is a heavy-duty telescopic forklift engineered for demanding construction and material handling applications. Powered by a Cummins 43.9 turbo diesel engine producing 100 horsepower, this machine delivers robust performance in challenging work environments. The forklift features an impressive maximum lift capacity of 8,000 pounds with a maximum forward reach of 26.3 feet, enabling operators to access elevated and distant loads with precision. Its maximum lift height reaches 41.1 feet, though the maximum load capacity decreases to 6,000 pounds at full height and 1,500 pounds at maximum reach, reflecting typical telescopic forklift load curve characteristics. The LK80R operates at a maximum speed of 16.8 miles per hour, facilitated by a 3-speed powershift transmission with both forward and reverse gears for enhanced operational flexibility. The machine's operating weight of 23,500 pounds provides substantial stability and traction during load handling operations. Dimensionally, the forklift measures 8 feet in overall height with a 16-inch ground clearance, allowing passage through standard industrial doorways and over uneven terrain. Its 13.7-foot turning radius outside tires and 8-foot width over tires enable efficient maneuvering in confined job sites. Equipped with 14.00-24 TG 12-ply tires, the LK80R offers superior durability and load-bearing capability. The machine's wheelbase of 10 feet and 18.3-foot length to fork face contribute to its balanced weight distribution and operational stability. This telescopic forklift represents a versatile solution for construction, agriculture, and industrial applications requiring extended reach and significant lifting capacity.
