About this machine
This 2013 Taylor TX550RC is a diesel forklift — sometimes referred to as a lift truck or industrial forklift — designed to handle heavy-duty lifting and load-movement operations in demanding industrial environments. Taylor is a well-established manufacturer of large-capacity lift trucks, known for building robust material-handling equipment that serves ports, shipyards, steel mills, lumber yards, and heavy industrial facilities around the world.
The TX550RC is rated for a lift capacity of 55,000 pounds at a 36-inch load center, placing it firmly in the heavy-lift segment. Power comes from a Cummins turbocharged, charge air aftercooled diesel engine that meets Tier certification standards, featuring electronic diagnostics and a maintenance monitoring system, a fuel and water separator, and engine and transmission protection systems. The Cummins powertrain also delivers improved fuel economy and reduced emissions relative to earlier non-certified engines.
The mast configuration is a two-stage unit with free lift, which allows the forks to rise through an initial range without increasing overall height — a practical advantage in confined or low-clearance environments. The truck is equipped with 96-inch forks and a quick-disconnect fork system for straightforward changeouts, along with a fork-positioning feature to suit varying load widths.
A defining characteristic of this particular model is its removable counterweight. This feature allows the truck to be craned or lowered into a ship's hull or other enclosed space that cannot accommodate a conventional drive-in approach, broadening the range of applications where the machine can be deployed. The short wheelbase further supports maneuverability in tight working areas.
This used example has accumulated approximately 3,000 hours of use and is located in Texas, USA. The machine is priced at $299,900 and is available for outright purchase or rental.
