This Toyota suits warehouses, transport depots and distribution centres that load and unload trucks and trailers, or that need to reach loads sitting further from the forklift.

The reach forks extend forward from the carriage, so the operator can pick up or place a load across a truck or trailer deck from one side instead of driving around to the other. The fork positioner sets the fork spread from the seat for different pallet and load widths, and side shift lines up the load without repositioning the whole truck.

The compact 2.5 tonne chassis suits tighter yards and aisles, and the on-board scales let the operator check load weights on the forks. With fresh paint, service and safety compliance, and a pallet jack, six-month service and metro delivery included, it is ready to go to work.

• Toyota is a widely recognised forklift brand with strong parts and service support across Australia.
• Reach forks extend the forklift’s reach without a second machine.
• Fork positioner adjusts the fork spread from the seat for different load widths.
• Side shift improves pallet alignment and reduces repositioning.
• On-board scales show load weights on the forks.
• Digital speedo for monitoring travel speed on site.
• Compact 2.5 tonne chassis for tighter yards and aisles.
• LPG operation allows quick cylinder changes during busy shifts.
• 4,036 recorded hours, moderate use for its age.
• A free pallet jack, six-month service and Melbourne metro delivery add value to the $20,888 ex GST price.

Operators using this 2.5t Toyota forklift with reach forks must hold a current LF high risk work licence and complete any required workplace induction.

Training should cover the reach fork, side shift and fork positioner controls, LPG cylinder handling, load capacity limits and load stability. Operators must work to the attachment capacity plate, not the 2.5 tonne base rating: 1,880 kg at a 600 mm load centre with the forks retracted and the mast vertical, falling to 1,200 kg with the forks extended and 880 kg with the forks extended and the mast tilted forward, all up to 4,500 mm.

Loads should be carried low with the reach forks retracted during travel, and only extended or raised when the forklift is correctly positioned. Regular refresher training is recommended.

This Toyota 32-8FGK25 is described as service and safety compliant, and its Toyota data plate states that it complies with Australian Standard AS 2359 as a minimum. A separate capacity plate gives its actual ratings with the reach forks, side shift and fork positioner fitted. Pre-delivery preparation should include inspection of the mast, forks and reach fork extensions, lifting chains, hydraulics, steering, brakes, tyres, attachments, LPG components and safety controls.

Buyers should complete a site-specific risk assessment and add the forklift to the workplace’s inspection, servicing and maintenance schedule. Servicing or compliance documentation can be requested from Buy A Fork for workplace records and audits.

Toyota forklifts hold strong demand in the Australian used market because of the brand’s reputation, parts availability and service support.

Reach forks, side shift, a fork positioner and on-board scales give this forklift a more versatile specification than a bare standard mast truck. Keeping service records up to date will help protect its condition and resale position.

This Toyota combines reach, fork positioning and load weighing in one machine, so a business can load trucks from one side and check load weights without extra equipment.

Side shift and the fork positioner cut handling time during pallet placement, and LPG operation supports quick refuelling on busy shifts. The free pallet jack, six-month service and Melbourne metro delivery reduce the upfront and first-year costs on top of the $20,888 ex GST purchase price.

This Toyota 32-8FGK25 is service and safety compliant, and a free six-month service valued at $595 is included. Ongoing maintenance should include regular checks of the mast, forks, reach fork extensions, lifting chains, hydraulics and hoses, side shift, fork positioner, steering, brakes, tyres, LPG system and safety controls.

Daily pre-start inspections should be completed before each shift, with operators reporting hydraulic leaks, damaged forks, chain wear, unusual noises, tyre damage or changes in braking and steering. The on-board scales should be checked for accuracy as part of regular servicing. Buy A Fork can assist with parts and after-sales support, and the 12-month warranty applies subject to its terms.

Finance packages are available for this 2.5t Toyota forklift with reach forks, with repayments discussed against the buyer’s requirements and approval conditions.

Trade-ins are welcome for businesses replacing or upgrading equipment, assessed on make, model, age, hours, condition and specifications. The forklift is located in Somerton, Victoria, and can be inspected by appointment, with delivery available Australia-wide.
