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.
A ton is 2000 pounds (907.19 kg), so does it follow that a half-ton truck weighs 1000 pounds (453.5 kg)? Actually, the name doesn't refer to the weight of the truck. In fact, half-ton pickups weigh much more than that. The weight of a truck without cargo or passengers is called the curb weight. For example, many 2007 half-ton pickups have curb weights between 9000 (4082.3 kg) and 11000 (4989.5 kg) pounds [source: Edmunds ]. The half-ton description loosely refers to the truck's payload capacity.
