Farm & Ranch Forklift Solutions

Scenario challenges

What makes farm and ranch duty different

Unpaved field tracks and feed-lot surfaces punish the same tires that fail on a construction site.

Harvest and shearing seasons concentrate a year of handling volume into a few weeks, which argues against buying for average-day duty.

Running separate machines for field work and lumber handling doubles the parts list a small operation has to stock.

Selection logic

Decision factor	What changes on a farm or ranch	How this solution is specified
Traction and terrain	Field tracks and lumber yards both need construction-grade traction and gradeability.	RT40 aggressive-lug solid tires and 30% gradeability cover both duties.
Seasonal load	Peak weeks carry heavier and more frequent loads than the rest of the year.	DF50 (5,000 kg @ 600 mm) adds headroom for seasonal peak weights where a single RT40 is not enough.
Parts stocking	Mixed fleets of different brands or power types multiply spare-parts inventory.	One RT40 platform shared across farm and lumber duties simplifies the parts list.

Recommended models

Core platform for field tracks and lumber-yard handling, with a canopy cab option for open-air seasonal work.

Added capacity headroom for seasonal peak loads beyond the RT40’s rating.
