A photo showing a custom forklift being produced at the Kaystar forklift factory. The forklift is a Kaystar Pioneer30 model, with four-wheel drive and four-steering functions, and is equipped with special steel pipe clamp attachments and solid off-road tires. Steel pipes come in different diameters and lengths, with the longest reaching 6 meters and the heaviest reaching 600 kilograms.

Steel pipes are widely used in various industries such as oil and gas, construction, mining, etc. However, loading and unloading steel pipes can be a challenging task, especially in rough terrain conditions. You need a reliable and versatile forklift that can handle the heavy and long pipes safely and efficiently.

That’s why we recommend the Kaystar Pioneer30, a custom-made 3-ton four-wheel drive rear wheel steering(four-wheel steering) off-road forklift that is specially designed for loading and unloading steel pipes. This forklift has a number of features that make it ideal for this job, such as:

  • A special pipe clamp attachment that can grip and lift steel pipes of different diameters and lengths, up to 6 meters long and 600 kg in weight. The clamp can also rotate 90 degrees, allowing you to adjust the position and direction of the pipes easily.
  • A solid off-road tire that can withstand punctures and abrasions, and provide excellent traction and stability on any terrain, such as mud, sand, gravel, etc. The tire also has a low rolling resistance, which reduces fuel consumption and noise.
  • A two-stage mast that can reach up to 4 meters in height, enabling you to stack the pipes vertically or horizontally on trucks or racks. The mast also has a free-lift function, which means you can lift the load without extending the mast, saving space and time.
  • A four-wheel drive and four-wheel steering system that gives you superior maneuverability and control over the forklift. You can switch between rear-wheel steering, four-wheel steering, or crab steering modes, depending on the situation. This allows you to navigate narrow spaces, sharp turns, slopes, etc. with ease.
  • A fully enclosed cab that protects you from dust, rain, wind, noise, etc. The cab is equipped with a comfortable seat, an ergonomic dashboard, a multifunctional display, an air conditioner, a heater, a radio, etc. The cab also has a wide view window and a rearview camera, giving you a clear vision of the surroundings.

With the Kaystar Pioneer30, you can load and unload steel pipes quickly and safely in any environment. Here are some tips on how to use this forklift effectively:

  • Before operating the forklift, make sure you check the oil level, tire pressure, brake system, lights, horn, etc. Also make sure you wear proper protective equipment such as gloves, helmet, boots, etc.
  • When approaching the steel pipes, align the forklift with the center of the pipes and lower the clamp to the appropriate height. Then slowly drive forward until the clamp touches the pipes gently. Press the clamp button to secure the pipes firmly.
  • When lifting the pipes, make sure you do not exceed the rated capacity of the forklift or the clamp. Also make sure you keep the load as low as possible and tilt the mast slightly backward to prevent the pipes from sliding forward.
  • When transporting the pipes, drive at a moderate speed and avoid sudden acceleration or braking. Also avoid sharp turns or uneven surfaces that may cause the load to sway or tip over. Keep a safe distance from other vehicles or obstacles.
  • When unloading the pipes, reverse the above steps carefully. Make sure you lower the pipes gently to avoid damage or injury. Release the clamp button to release the pipes.
