About This Equipment

The Palfinger FHS 55 P truck-mounted forklift delivers 5,500 lb capacity at 24″ load center with a 56 HP engine and true three-wheel drive, ideal for contractors, building supply, utilities, and municipalities that need to unload material where standard forklifts can’t go. Left-side operator station, swivel seat with side guard, and trencher V-grip tires give your crew secure footing and control on jobsites and rights-of-way across Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, and the Upper Midwest.

Standard equipment on this FHS 55 P includes fork carriage tilt back (+6°), 5″ side shift, three trencher V-grip tires, two safety hanger chains with pins, and owner’s manuals. Optional pallet forks, seat cover, and rear-view mirror can be added to match your fleet standards. Paired with the right truck body or trailer, this unit is a compact, reliable material handler for construction, utility, contractor, and municipal operations that need fast turnarounds and dependable site delivery.
