In the Netherlands, a diesel forklift is subject to the Working Conditions Act, which means it must undergo periodic inspections. During the inspection, the technical condition of the forklift is assessed, among other things. Standards such as NEN 1175 play a role. This includes inspecting the lifting and hydraulic systems, brakes, and lights, as well as a valid inspection report and sticker as proof of approval. If you’re buying a used diesel forklift, it’s a good idea to ask for a valid inspection report. Machinehandel Jansen supplies used diesel forklifts that have been inspected and are ready for immediate use. Please note: inspection requirements may vary by industry and application; always consult the current occupational safety and health guidelines for the exact requirements.
Are you looking for a used diesel forklift that combines power and durability? Diesel forklifts are known for their robust performance and long service life, making them ideal for heavy-duty work in construction, industry, and logistics. By the way, did you know that, in addition to diesel forklifts, we also offer used forklifts ?
A used diesel forklift is perfect for outdoor use and heavy-duty industrial applications, such as:
Construction sites: effortlessly moving building materials
Logistics centers: efficiently loading and unloading cargo
Manufacturing facilities: moving heavy machinery and parts
Diesel forklifts are known for their power and reliability, especially when it comes to heavy-duty applications. With lifting capacities between 2 and 7 tons, these machines are widely used in the logistics, construction and industrial sectors. They perform excellently on uneven surfaces, making them ideal for outdoor use, such as on construction sites or warehouses.
One of the biggest advantages of a diesel forklift is the speed and simplicity of refueling. Unlike electric models, which take hours to recharge, a diesel forklift is ready for use again in minutes. This makes them particularly suitable for businesses where machinery must run continuously and long working hours are common.
However, there are also drawbacks. Diesel forklifts produce more noise and emissions than electric or LPG models. This can be a problem, especially in enclosed spaces such as warehouses and manufacturing facilities. For example, in a food-processing plant, it’s not advisable to use a diesel forklift because of the emissions. In this case, an electric forklift offers a cleaner and quieter alternative.
Diesel forklifts are best suited for large outdoor areas, ports, or industrial workshops. They are built to move heavy loads and continue to perform reliably regardless of working conditions.
Diesel forklifts are very suitable for outdoor use. They are not dependent on recharging like electric forklifts are. In addition, used diesel forklifts can still handle heavy loads and drive well on uneven surfaces. For outdoor use, a diesel forklift the right choice.
When buying a used diesel forklift, the operating hours are an important indicator of how much the machine has been used. However, operating hours alone do not tell the whole story about a forklift’s technical condition or remaining service life. A well-maintained used diesel forklift with high operating hours may be in better condition than a forklift with fewer operating hours that has been poorly maintained.
Therefore, when evaluating operating hours, always consider the year of manufacture, the maintenance history, and how the forklift has been used. Working conditions are also important. A forklift that has been used primarily on flat surfaces may wear differently than a machine that moves heavy loads on a construction site.
When evaluating a used diesel forklift, in addition to the operating hours, also pay attention to the condition of the engine, transmission, hydraulics, mast, forks, and tires. Verify that maintenance has been properly documented and that the operating hours match the available maintenance and usage history.
At Machinehandel Jansen, we don’t just look at the number of operating hours; we evaluate the used diesel forklift as a whole. This gives you a clear picture of its technical condition and suitability for your operations.

At Machinehandel Jansen, we sell high-quality diesel forklifts that remain serviceable and have passed inspection even after a considerable amount of time. When it comes to forklifts, it’s not just about the type of drive system or capacity, but also about the quality of the brands. Well-known brands such as Toyota, Hyster, Linde, and Still all have their own characteristics and strengths:
Hyster diesel forklifts are best known for being ideal for heavy-duty industries such as ports and construction sites. Hyster forklifts are known for their durability and ease of maintenance. They can handle a wide range of tasks, are comfortable for the operator, and offer excellent all-around visibility.

Linde forklifts stand out for their handling and durability. Linde forklifts allow you to work with great precision and drive away smoothly. Certain Linde models feature hydrostatic drive, which allows the forklift to brake smoothly and controlled when the accelerator pedal is released. This contributes to smooth and precise operation.
