Advantages of This Yale GLP050MX

• Low hours for its class: At 1,780 hours, this forklift has seen far less runtime than many used alternatives, which often translates into reduced wear on major systems and a longer service life ahead.
• Propane power: LP forklifts are prized for quick refueling, stable output, and clean indoor performance compared to many diesel units. Propane also helps maintain productivity during multi‑shift operations where battery charging cycles could otherwise slow throughput.
• Proven Yale engineering: The GLP050MX belongs to a platform known for balanced capacity, efficient lifting performance, ergonomic controls, and service access that keeps maintenance straightforward.
• 2018 model year: More modern components typically mean better parts availability, improved operator environments, and refinements in performance and reliability.
• Value pricing: At $19,875, this used Yale GLP050MX provides strong ROI potential versus new equipment, with significantly lower upfront cost while retaining dependable workhorse capability.

Understanding Common GLP050MX Features

While this specific listing confirms propane fuel, buyers often evaluate GLP050MX forklifts in relation to features such as side shift, capacity class, mast height, and hydraulic configuration. Here’s how those options impact real‑world productivity and what to consider as you compare units. Please note: the following items are general explanations and not confirmed specifications for NLEQ# 147285. Contact NLEQ to verify the exact configuration of this machine.

• Side shift: A side shift carriage lets operators nudge loads left or right without moving the entire truck. In tight aisles, on racks with minimal clearance, or when staging pallets closely, side shift can speed placement and reduce re‑handling, improving both cycle times and load accuracy.
• Capacity considerations (example: 5,000 lb class): Many Yale GLP050MX forklifts are matched to common warehouse loads in the 5,000‑lb class. Capacity should be evaluated at the load center you handle most often, with attention to how forks, attachments, and mast height affect rated capacity at elevation.
• Mast height and collapsed height (example: 85 inch collapsed, 195 inch lift): Forklifts are frequently chosen based on door clearance, trailer access, and racking height. A triple‑stage mast with a low collapsed height can clear standard doorways, while a tall maximum lift height helps you fully utilize vertical storage. Always verify both collapsed and max lift measurements against your site constraints.
• Three‑way hydraulics: Common hydraulic layouts provide lift, tilt, and auxiliary function for attachments or side shift. The right hydraulic setup improves load control and reduces operator input, aiding precision in dense storage environments.

Again, only propane fuel type is confirmed for this listing. If features like side shift, a particular capacity rating, a specific triple mast (for example, an 85 inch collapsed height and 195 inch lift), or three‑way hydraulics are essential to your workflow, NLEQ will confirm whether this GLP050MX is equipped accordingly or recommend a comparable unit that matches your requirements.

Applications and Industry Relevance

The Yale GLP050MX is a versatile choice across many industries where reliable material handling drives throughput. In warehousing and distribution, a propane forklift maintains steady performance across long shifts, quickly refuels between breaks, and navigates loading docks and trailers efficiently. Manufacturing facilities benefit from dependable pallet transport between production cells, staging, and finished goods. Construction supply yards and building products distributors appreciate the durability and consistent power for lumber, masonry, and palletized materials. Retail DCs, food and beverage operations, and third‑party logistics providers value the balance of agility and power associated with the GLP050MX platform, especially when aisle space and rack heights demand precise load handling.

Ownership Value

• Lower total cost of ownership: Purchasing a quality used Yale industrial forklift often reduces capital expenditure while preserving essential capabilities. The savings sharpen ROI and free budget for other productivity investments.
• Parts and service support: Yale’s established dealer and parts networks simplify maintenance planning, ensuring you can keep this GLP050MX in service with readily available components and knowledgeable technicians.
• Operator‑friendly design: Yale forklifts are known for intuitive controls, solid sightlines, and predictable handling. Operator confidence shortens training time and can contribute to safer, more consistent operations.
• Fueling flexibility: Propane cylinders are simple to swap, minimizing downtime compared to battery charging. This flexibility helps keep your lift ready when it’s needed most.
• Resale confidence: Well‑maintained Yale equipment retains market interest, giving you options should your fleet needs evolve down the road.

Why This 2018 Yale GLP050MX

This machine stands out because of its combination of year, hours, and fuel type—three factors that materially affect day‑to‑day operations and total cost. A 2018 Yale with only 1,780 hours puts you in a younger, less‑worn machine that is ready to deliver reliable service. The propane configuration keeps fueling easy and predictable for multi‑shift or high‑throughput environments. Priced at $19,875, it represents an attractive entry point into a trusted brand and model line without the premium of a new forklift. For buyers who prioritize availability, uptime, and dependable support, this GLP050MX is a smart, practical fit.
