Clark CGP30 Specifications

Basic Information

The Clark CGP30 is a mid-capacity internal-combustion pneumatic-tire forklift engineered for industrial applications requiring dependable outdoor capability, balanced performance, and simplified servicing. With a nominal lifting capacity of approximately 3,000 kg (6,600 lb), the CGP30 occupies a critical segment of Clark’s product line, delivering a reliable combination of engine power, wide-stance stability, high-traction pneumatic tires, and rugged structural design suitable for harsh operating environments.

This model is widely used in lumber yards, construction material depots, agricultural processing sites, steel handling operations, manufacturing plants, outdoor distribution yards, and facilities that require continuous load-handling across mixed or uneven terrain.

Built around a welded steel chassis, reinforced mast assembly, industrial hydraulic system, and a durable powershift transmission, the CGP30 provides long service life with predictable lifting and driving performance. Operators benefit from a comfortable cab with good outward visibility, intuitive lever layout, smooth hydrostatic steering, and a balanced seat-to-mast geometry that reduces fatigue during extended shifts.

Maintenance teams appreciate the logical component arrangement, open engine access, accessible hydraulic filters, durable wet-disc or drum brake systems, and simple electrical configuration. As part of Clark’s proven forklift heritage, the CGP30 remains an efficient and cost-effective solution for fleets requiring mid-range outdoor lift capabilities.
