This Yale GLP050MX is a used gas forklift — also commonly called a lift truck or forklift truck — a class of powered industrial truck designed to lift, transport, and stack palletised loads in warehouses, distribution centres, and industrial facilities. Yale is a well-established name in the material handling industry, manufacturing a broad range of forklifts and warehousing equipment for commercial and industrial operations worldwide. This example is a 2017 model located in Illinois, USA, and is offered at $22,950.
The forklift is rated for a 5,000 lb lift capacity and is powered by LPG fuel, making it well suited to both indoor and outdoor use with the appropriate ventilation considerations. It rides on pneumatic tyres, which provide improved traction and shock absorption compared to cushion tyres and are particularly effective on uneven or outdoor surfaces.
The mast is a three-stage configuration, lowering to 83 inches and extending to a raised height of 189 inches, offering substantial vertical reach while maintaining a relatively compact collapsed profile for travel under low clearances. Three-way hydraulics are plumbed directly to the carriage, enabling the use of hydraulic attachments beyond the standard tilt function. An integral sideshifter is fitted as standard, allowing the operator to shift the forks laterally without repositioning the truck — a practical feature that improves load placement accuracy and reduces cycle times. Forks are included with the machine.
Transmission is an automatic lever-shift unit, reducing operator fatigue and simplifying operation in high-cycle environments. Together, this specification makes the machine a capable and well-equipped workhorse for general pallet-handling and racking applications.
