What sort of work is the TCM FG50T9 best suited to?

It is best suited to heavier loading, unloading and site handling where a 5-tonne forklift is the right tool for the job. That usually means transport yards, manufacturing sites, larger warehouses and operations moving heavier stock.

Is 370 hours low for a used 2018 forklift?

Yes. For a machine of this age, 370 hours is low. That does not replace a proper inspection, but it is a strong starting point for a buyer looking at overall wear and remaining working life.

Why buy a used 5-tonne forklift instead of a new one?

If the machine is right and the condition is right, it can be a very smart buy. It gives you the lifting capacity you need without the full jump to new-equipment pricing, which matters when you are buying for function first.

What difference do the fork positioner and weighing scale make?

They make the truck more useful on-site. A fork positioner helps the operator adjust quickly for different load widths, and a weighing scale gives you more control where load accuracy matters. That can save time and clean up handling on busier sites.

How does LPG compare with diesel on a machine like this?

That comes down to the site. LPG can make a lot of sense where you want quicker refuelling, cleaner running than diesel and more flexibility on mixed-use sites. Diesel still has its place, but LPG is often the easier answer where the site does not want a pure diesel setup.

Do you support used heavy forklifts after sale?

Yes. Compass supports Perth metro with servicing, repairs and after-sales support, so buying used does not mean you are left to deal with the mechanical side on your own.
