Condition

This 2016 Mitsubishi FG18N shows just 735 hours, reflecting light use relative to its model year.

Advantages and What These Specs Mean for Your Operation

• Gasoline Engine: A gasoline-powered forklift delivers smooth throttle response and strong, predictable performance—ideal for frequent starts and stops, staging, and tight maneuvering. Gasoline engines are straightforward to refuel, quick to start in all seasons, and typically quieter than many diesel units. For facilities with proper ventilation or mixed indoor/outdoor workflows, a gasoline forklift offers flexible deployment without the need for specialized LPG tanks.
• Side Shift: Side shift allows the carriage to move the load left or right without repositioning the entire truck. In practice, that means faster cycle times and fewer “back-and-forth” adjustments when placing pallets in racking, loading trailers, or aligning with packaging lines. It reduces tire wear, saves time, and helps operators set loads exactly where they belong, improving safety and throughput.
• 3500# Capacity @ 24" Load Center: The 3,500-pound class is one of the most versatile ranges for warehousing and light industrial tasks. Rated at a 24-inch load center, this Mitsubishi FG18N is well-suited to standard pallets, typical raw materials, finished goods, and general MRO supplies. The capacity strikes a practical balance—robust enough for everyday demands while keeping the truck compact and agile in tight aisles.
• 78" (Collapsed) Triple Mast: A 78-inch collapsed height helps this forklift clear low doorways, mezzanine entries, and trailer openings. The triple-stage mast combines a low stowed profile with excellent vertical reach, so you gain the ability to work in constrained spaces without sacrificing lift height. This is especially valuable in older facilities or high-density warehouses where door and ceiling clearance can be limiting factors.
• 177" Lift Height: With a maximum lift height of 177 inches, the FG18N can stack and retrieve loads on higher beams, manage double-stacked pallets, and service mixed-height racking. That extra reach expands the storage options within your existing footprint and supports more efficient vertical inventory management.
• Mitsubishi Build Quality: Mitsubishi Industrial Forklifts are recognized for dependable drivetrains, ergonomic control layouts, and long-term parts support. The FG series is designed for daily, real‑world productivity—straightforward to operate, easy to maintain, and engineered for consistent uptime.
• 735 Hours on a 2016 Unit: Low hours for the model year typically equate to less wear on key components and more useful life ahead. For buyers prioritizing longevity and reduced near-term maintenance expense, the hour-to-age ratio on this FG18N is a meaningful advantage.

Applications

The Mitsubishi FG18N in this configuration excels in environments where space, speed, and accuracy matter. Common use cases include:

• Warehousing and Distribution: Quick order picking, put-away, and staging with precise Side Shift alignment and smooth gasoline power for steady pace across shifts.
• Manufacturing and Assembly: Handling raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods with a compact machine that navigates around equipment, work cells, and conveyors.
• Loading Docks and Cross-Docking: Efficiently unload and load trailers thanks to the 78" (Collapsed) Triple Mast, which fits typical trailer openings while still delivering a 177" Lift Height for racking tasks.
• Retail and Home Improvement Centers: Move palletized inventory, appliances, and building materials across mixed indoor/outdoor areas without sacrificing maneuverability.
• Light Industrial Yards: Stage materials, load service trucks, and manage inventory with the 3500# Capacity @ 24" Load Center for broad day-to-day utility.

Ownership Value

Choosing a used 2016 Mitsubishi FG18N from NLEQ gives you the core benefits of a late-model industrial forklift while avoiding the steep depreciation that hits new equipment. The gasoline powerplant keeps fueling simple, and the 3,500-pound capacity suits a wide range of materials without oversizing the machine. With just 735 hours, you’re acquiring a forklift that still has plenty of productive life ahead.

Mitsubishi’s reputation for durable components and accessible service points helps reduce downtime and control maintenance costs. The Side Shift feature prevents needless repositioning and can shave minutes off each cycle—savings that add up across shifts. Meanwhile, the 78" (Collapsed) Triple Mast and 177" Lift Height help you use vertical storage efficiently, potentially delaying costly facility expansions by making better use of current space.

Why This FG18N Stands Out

• Right-Sized Capability: The 3500# Capacity @ 24" Load Center covers a broad spectrum of common pallets and materials without the bulk of a larger truck.
• Compact Reach, Big Versatility: A 78" (Collapsed) Triple Mast and 177" Lift Height deliver low-overhead access and high stacking capability in one package.
• Precision Handling: Side Shift means faster placement, less aisle congestion, and fewer adjustments—improving throughput and operator confidence.
• Low Hours for the Year: 735 hours on a 2016 Mitsubishi FG18N signals light duty and favorable remaining service life compared with typical fleet averages.
• Compelling Price Point: At $14,975, this machine provides strong ROI for buyers seeking quality without the new-equipment premium.
