Need Reliable Diesel Power? Upgrade to the Ekko EK25D 5,000 lb Diesel Pneumatic-Tire Forklift for All-Day Performance

Buying a cheap forklift often means frequent breakdowns, surprise maintenance bills, and slow lift cycles that stall your workflow. The Ekko 5,000 lb Diesel Forklift (EK25D) solves those headaches by pairing a Tier 4 EPA-compliant Mitsubishi 4EG engine with solid pneumatic tires, so you get the traction and muscle to keep pallets moving—even on rough yard surfaces. Say goodbye to downtime and hello to productivity, because this Diesel forklift is built to go the distance.

Step into the roomy operator cabin and you’ll notice the enlarged overhead guard and large arc-shape front legs that open up forward visibility. A multifunctional suspended seat soaks up vibration, while the easy-reach steering wheel lets you fine-tune your driving position in seconds. An impedance-composite muffler tamps down engine noise, so long shifts feel less tiring and communication stays clear across the floor.

Precision comes standard: the EK25D arrives pre-plumbed with a Shimadzu® 4-Way Valve and Cascade® Side Shift for pinpoint load placement. Its 24 in load center, 62.9 in wheelbase, and 8,465 lb service weight strike the perfect balance between stability and nimble handling in tight aisles.
