Overview

The Toyota 8FD50U series is known across the industry for its rugged build, intuitive operation, and long service life. This used Straight Mast Forklift brings that reputation together with the practical options that matter in the field: 48" forks for immediate pallet and load handling, a Side Shift to fine-tune horizontal placement without repositioning the truck, and a Fork Positioner to adjust fork spacing from the seat when dealing with varying pallet sizes or odd-shaped loads. The diesel powerplant supplies consistent low-end torque for smooth starts and confident lifting under heavy weight, while the compact 95" (collapsed) mast height supports facilities with standard dock doors or lower clearances. With 4,150 hours, this 2016 unit remains in the sweet spot for dependable service with plenty of productive life ahead, especially under Toyota’s strong reputation for reliability. For operations that want a turnkey, ready-to-work machine, NLEQ can also provide Reconditioning Available based on your needs.

Key Advantages and What They Mean for Your Operation

• Diesel power for demanding duty: Diesel delivers high torque at low RPM, ideal for starting, lifting, and maneuvering under heavy loads. In applications where uptime and grunt matter, diesel forklifts like the Toyota 8FD50U excel.
• 11000# Capacity confidence: With an 11,000 lb rating, this truck handles heavy pallets, structural steel, equipment components, lumber packs, and bulk materials with room to spare—reducing pick counts and improving throughput.
• 48" Forks for immediate productivity: Standard 48" forks are ready for most pallets and skids. Operators can get to work without delays for new forks or modifications.
• Fork Positioner for faster changeovers: Adjust fork spacing from the operator’s seat to match different pallet sizes without leaving the cab. This improves safety, reduces downtime, and minimizes strain on operators.
• Side Shift precision: Side Shift lets operators move the carriage laterally to fine-tune fork position. That means less truck repositioning, less tire wear, and faster, more accurate placements in tight spaces.
• 95" (Collapsed) Standard Mast for door clearance: A 95" collapsed height helps with low doorways, trailers, and tight loading docks—expanding where the machine can work and reducing hang-ups at thresholds.
• 119" Lift Height for common racking: The 119" lift height supports typical yard, dock, and low-to-mid racking scenarios, balancing compact mast geometry with useful reach.
• Toyota reliability: Toyota forklifts are respected for their design, component quality, and longevity. That translates to more time on the job and predictable maintenance planning.
• 2016 model year with 4,150 hours: A modern, proven platform with manageable hours for long-term service life and a strong balance of value and performance.
• Reconditioning Available: Tailor the final presentation and readiness level—from cosmetic touch-ups to deeper mechanical reconditioning—so the forklift arrives exactly how you want it.

Where This Toyota 8FD50U Performs Best

• Construction supply yards: Move block, rebar bundles, equipment crates, and building materials with authority.
• Steel and fabrication shops: Handle plate, bar stock, weldments, and tooling with precise Side Shift control and fork spacing via the Fork Positioner.
• Lumber and mill operations: Lift heavy lumber packs and engineered wood products efficiently with the 11000# Capacity rating.
• Distribution and cross-dock: Quickly stage inbound/outbound pallets with the 48" Forks and use Side Shift to speed load alignment in congested docks.
• Manufacturing plants: Feed production lines, relocate dies and fixtures, and manage WIP or finished goods with the diesel torque to keep pace.
• Precast and masonry: Confidently handle dense, heavy products where capacity and stability are non-negotiable.
• Rental fleets: A durable, mainstream Toyota configuration that appeals to a broad customer base for short- and long-term rentals.
• Outdoor yards: Diesel power thrives outdoors, and the compact mast height aids in trailer work and mixed-height facilities.
• Ports and intermodal: Maneuver heavy loads on and off transport with the precision of Side Shift and seat-adjustable fork spacing.
• General material handling: Any operation that needs a reliable, high-capacity straight mast forklift with versatile attachments.

Ownership Value

A used Toyota 8FD50U offers a smart value proposition: strong lifting performance, diesel economy under load, and a reputation for durability that keeps lifetime costs in check. The 11,000 lb capacity opens up heavier, higher-margin work, while the Side Shift and Fork Positioner reduce cycle times and operator effort. Over the life of the machine, that kind of ergonomic and productivity advantage translates directly into lower handling costs per ton moved.

Beyond performance, Toyota’s widespread parts availability and service familiarity make ownership straightforward. Whether you maintain in-house or partner with a service provider, the platform’s popularity simplifies support, and NLEQ can align the truck to your expectations with Reconditioning Available so you start with the condition level that best suits your budget, brand image, and workload.

Why This 8FD50U Stands Out

Not all forklifts in this class are created equal. This specific 2016 Toyota 8FD50U pairs desirable capacity with the right control attachments to speed daily operations. The 95" (Collapsed) Standard Mast / 119" Lift Height combination makes it at home in real-world workspaces—from typical dock doors to mid-height racking—while the 48" Forks cover the most common pallet sizes. The diesel powerplant provides the muscle to lift and travel confidently under weight, and the manageable 4,150-hour total suggests a long runway of productive service. For buyers who want a proven brand, a practical configuration, and the option to tailor the final condition, this unit is an efficient, high-value choice.
