What the specifications mean
The 15–22 ft value describes available mast heights; it is not a continuously adjustable specification for every 940. Confirm the installed mast and capacity plate.
Older 76 hp literature and regional 4,000 kg models have different reference bases. Their dimensions are not silently transferred into this record.

A brochure configuration is not an individual marketplace machine. Serial/PIN and build information are required for exact verification.
Used 940 inspection priorities
- Check mast chains, rollers, carriage and fork condition with the manufacturer inspection procedure and documented service history.
- Confirm serial number, engine plate, tire package and mast identification; inspect steering and brakes with qualified personnel.
Configuration-aware inspection: these checks are triggered by machine category, installed configuration and technology package. Brochure-listed technology must be physically present, active, licensed and calibrated on the used machine.
Hours, condition and ownership cost
Hours are context, not a condition grade. Duty cycle, idle time, maintenance evidence, wear-system measurements, structural repairs and installed technology should be evaluated together.
Cost drivers to model
- Compare this forklift with another mast-equipped machine using load centre, residual capacity, access and turning space. A nominal 8,000 lb rating alone is insufficient.
- Obtain transport dimensions and a machine-specific service estimate before making a delivered-cost comparison.

Transport reference
Reference measurements retain their configuration and verification status. Confirm the actual transport setup before booking.
No transport-prefill values published for this record. Measure and weigh the configured machine.
Reference specifications can differ from the actual configured machine. Confirm dimensions and weight before booking transportation.
