How Fast Can a Forklift Go?
A common forklift max speed is 10 miles per hour.
But depending on the type and model, forklift top speed is usually between 5 and 15 mph.
Excessive speed is one of the common cause of accidents
— especially rollovers. Traveling too fast shortens the driver’s reaction time and increases the chance for an accident when turning. Though OSHA has not set a specific speed limit for lift trucks, 5mph is generally regarded as a safe maximum speed.
Unfortunately, forklifts don’t come with a speedometer.
Utilizing a FORKLIFT SPEED LIMITER, which can sense speeds as slow as 1mph, can be an effective way to discourage speeding.

2.Realtime Speed Displaying:
The customer can choose the external LED Screen for speed displaying, or just use our device for displaying.

4. When the Forklift is reversing, there is the alarm to notify the driver and pedestrians.
