Internal combustion counterbalanced lift trucks
Internal combustion engine trucks are fueled by liquid propane, compressed natural gas, diesel or gasoline. Gasoline- or diesel-powered lift trucks are normally large trucks meant for outdoor use. They have either cushion tires made of solid rubber suited to driving on floors indoors or pneumatic tires appropriate for driving on rough terrain and steep inclines.
Internal combustion counterbalanced lift trucks with cushion tires are categorized by the ITA as Class 4 trucks. Class 5 are trucks that have pneumatic tires.
Normally utilized to power indoor lift trucks is liquid propane. These kinds of trucks have some advantages. They are capable of achieving higher speeds and could provide consistent power during operation. They don't need to be refueled as frequently as lift trucks powered by other sources. Propane cylinders don't take up much space and can be stored anywhere. The cylinders can be easily switched out by a skilled operator.
The advantage of internal combustion trucks is that they are easily refueled. The drawbacks are air-pollution and too much noise.
