Cat P4000 Specifications

Basic Information

The Cat P4000 is a 4,000 lb (2,000 kg) capacity pneumatic tire forklift powered by a gasoline or LPG engine. This four-wheel, sit-down counterbalanced truck is designed for indoor and outdoor material handling applications where versatility and maneuverability are required. Power is provided by a Nissan K25 engine, generating 63 hp (47.0 kW), mated to a single-speed powershift transmission enabling travel speeds up to 11.5 mph (18.5 km/h) and lift speeds reaching 130 fpm (650 mm/s).

The truck features a standard two-stage mast providing 131.0 in (3,340 mm) of maximum fork height with 5.5 in (140 mm) of free lift. Optional three-stage mast configurations offer lift heights up to 187 in (4,750 mm) with integrated side-shift capability. The P4000 incorporates pneumatic tires suitable for varied surfaces, with 7.00x12-12PR front tires and 6.00x9-10PR rear tires. Additional features include hydraulic power steering and a spacious operator compartment.
