Cat 2C4000 Specifications

Basic Information

The Cat 2C4000 is a reliable Class IV internal combustion cushion tire forklift built for demanding indoor applications requiring 4,000 lb lifting capacity. Powered by a Nissan K25 engine with gasoline or LPG fuel options, it provides responsive power delivery and operational efficiency. Operators benefit from a well-designed compartment with intuitive controls, good visibility, and a comfortable seat that reduces fatigue during extended shifts. The single-speed powershift transmission ensures smooth directional changes, while the hydrostatic power steering enhances maneuverability in confined warehouse spaces.
