Condition

Every piece of equipment offered by NLEQ is carefully tested and inspected before it is listed for sale so buyers receive accurate, honest, and reliable information. Hours are recorded at 4,610 at the time of listing. The electric function, mast operation, and key systems have been evaluated for performance. As a used industrial forklift, minor cosmetic wear consistent with age and use can be expected, but buyers can move forward with confidence knowing this RC5545-40 has been reviewed by professionals who know exactly what matters in daily material handling. Detailed information is available upon request, and serious buyers are encouraged to contact NLEQ for current photos, video, and inspection details specific to this unit.

Advantages

• Stand-up configuration for high productivity: Operators can step in and out quickly for frequent stops, ideal for dock-to-stock operations, loading/unloading trailers, and short shuttle runs. The stand-up design also promotes excellent forward visibility for precise pallet entry and exit.
• Electric power for indoor efficiency: The 36-volt electric system delivers smooth, quiet performance without emissions, supporting a cleaner work environment and reducing ventilation needs compared with internal combustion alternatives.
• 4,000 lb capacity for core warehouse tasks: This rating covers the majority of standard palletized loads, giving your team the capability to handle most daily picks, put-aways, and transfers with confidence.
• Triple mast versatility: The low collapsed height allows access through common doorways and under many mezzanines or low obstructions, while the tall maximum lift height supports efficient racking and stacking in higher bays.
• Side shift for precise placement: Side shift allows lateral movement of the carriage without repositioning the truck, helping operators land pallets squarely, save time in tight aisles, and reduce rack or product contact.
• Crown design and durability: Crown’s reputation in Industrial Forklifts centers on robust frames, reliable components, and intuitive controls, which translates into predictable handling and strong long-term value.
• Lower operating costs: Electric forklifts typically reduce fuel spend and help streamline maintenance compared with IC units, supporting a better total cost of ownership over time.

Applications

• Warehousing and distribution: Efficient pallet movement, replenishment, and put-away in narrow or standard aisles with controlled, quiet operation.
• Manufacturing support: Line-side delivery, work-in-process transfers, and finished goods staging where clean, responsive handling is critical.
• Food and beverage environments: Electric power supports indoor air quality objectives while handling typical pallet loads and frequent dock activity.
• Retail and wholesale operations: Backroom and cross-dock handling where maneuverability, quick ingress/egress, and precise placement save time.
• Packaging and printing: Gentle, accurate movement of materials and finished goods with minimized risk of exhaust exposure in production areas.
• General material handling: A versatile, do-it-all forklift for facilities balancing throughput, operator comfort, and cost control.

Ownership Value

Electric Industrial Forklifts like this Crown RC5545-40 are favored for their balance of performance and ongoing cost savings. Electric drive reduces fuel volatility and typically lowers day-to-day operating expenses compared to internal combustion trucks. Maintenance needs are simplified without engine oil changes or exhaust aftertreatment systems, which helps reduce downtime and improve predictability. Additionally, the stand-up configuration contributes to faster cycle times in operations with frequent stops and tight-space maneuvering, helping teams do more work with fewer steps. Crown’s strong parts support and wide service familiarity further reinforce the long-term value proposition for owners who want dependable uptime and a predictable maintenance plan.
