Advantages that Drive Productivity

• 36,000 lb capacity: The DCG160-12 is engineered for true heavy-duty lifting. A 36,000 lb rating allows you to confidently handle steel coils, plate, pipe, precast concrete, heavy tooling, and large industrial components without stretching the machine’s limits. That capacity translates directly into fewer moves, safer handling, and more throughput per shift.
• Diesel power: Diesel provides the torque, fueling convenience, and endurance demanded in high-load environments. For long days in steel, lumber, port, or fabrication yards, diesel delivers consistent performance and efficient fuel burn under heavy load cycles.
• 96" forks: Longer 96" forks increase load support and stability for wide or deep pallets, long bundles of lumber or pipe, and large fabrications. Longer blades reduce the need for extensions in many scenarios, improving speed and safety when positioning heavy loads.
• 2-stage mast: A 2-stage mast offers a strong, rigid structure with excellent visibility and fewer moving parts than multi-stage designs. This can improve durability and driver sightlines while keeping the overall mast height practical for standard doorways and indoor/outdoor transitions.
• Air pneumatic tires: Air pneumatic tires deliver cushioning and traction on uneven yards, gravel, and mixed surfaces common in industrial sites, ports, and outdoor storage areas. The result is better ride quality, more confidence on rough ground, and reduced shock to both the machine and load.
• Heated & air conditioned cab: A climate-controlled operator environment supports productivity year-round. Heat for cold mornings and A/C for summer shifts reduce fatigue and help operators maintain focus—especially important when routinely handling 36,000 lb loads.
• Fork positioner: The fork positioner lets the operator adjust fork spacing from the seat, speeding load changes and minimizing the time spent manually repositioning forks. This is a significant efficiency and ergonomics advantage when dealing with varied pallet widths and load geometries.
• Side shift: Side shift allows precise lateral placement of heavy loads without re-approaching the stack. That fine control reduces tire scrubbing and cycle times while improving rack alignment and load positioning accuracy.
• 4-valve hydraulics: A 4-valve hydraulic setup supports multiple functions like lift, tilt, side shift, and fork positioning from the cab. With more auxiliary control, operators can tailor handling to the load, improving safety and efficiency in tight spaces or with delicate materials.
• 147"/157" mast dimensions: The listed 147"/157" figures provide the mast parameters you need to plan clearances and lift requirements. This helps align the DCG160-12 with your building heights, overhead obstructions, and racking strategies.

Applications Where the DCG160-12 Excels

• Steel service centers and foundries handling coils, billets, plate, and structural shapes
• Lumber and timber yards moving bundled lumber, timbers, sheets, and engineered products
• Precast and concrete plants lifting forms, blocks, pipe, barriers, and heavy molds
• Ports, intermodal, and logistics yards with heavy crates, machinery, and containerized components
• Fabrication and heavy manufacturing environments moving dies, fixtures, and large assemblies
• Energy, mining, and infrastructure projects that demand reliable 36,000 lb lift capability
• Equipment rental fleets seeking a high-capacity, versatile industrial forklift
• Rigging and industrial moving services requiring precise positioning with side shift and fork positioner
