Florida Pool Service Contractors Exam Prep. When homeowners find out you are a fully licensed Pool Service contractor, youâre more than likely going to get the job over someone whoâs just a technician.
Internal combustion engine, counterweight type forklifts typically weigh twice their rated capacity. A weight of 9800 pounds or more is very likely. The data plate(if present) should tell the weight. If you have the model and serial #, your local Nissan lift dealer should be able to find the information. 7,800 pounds is closer to the weight of a 3,000 or 4,000 pound capacity truck.
The total weight doesn't really bother me much, its still 1,200 lbs less than what my manual states as the max trailer weight, and I doubt I will ever be able to fill the trailer up to its max payload. The one thing I'm worried about is the pin weight on my rear axle. The axle is rated for 6048 lbs. 20% of the 5th wheel weight is 2,800 lbs, which is what I'm told to use when calculating this weight. I've read on several websites that the rear axle weighs about 3,500 lbs when empty.
