Available now in Morgantown, Pennsylvania, this 1987 International M10A rough terrain forklift for sale offers serious outdoor lifting capability with a reported 10,000 lb lift capacity, diesel power, 4WD, enclosed cab, and approximately 700 reported hours. The current owner recently purchased the forklift from the previous seller but quickly discovered that the machine is simply larger than what he needs for his operation. Rather than keep equipment that does not fit his needs, he is looking to move it quickly and recover approximately what he has invested.

The asking price is $26,000, and the seller is open to reasonable offers. He is highly motivated to get the forklift sold and moved as soon as possible.

Heavy-Duty 10,000 lb Rough Terrain Forklift

The International M10A is considerably different from a typical warehouse forklift. It was designed as a rugged outdoor material-handling machine capable of operating in environments where traction, ground clearance, and heavy construction matter.

With a reported 10,000 lb lifting capacity, this machine may be well suited for operations handling large pallets, heavy equipment components, lumber, building materials, machinery, supplies, and other substantial loads.

Potential applications include:

• Farms and agricultural operations
• Construction sites
• Lumber yards
• Sawmills
• Equipment yards
• Industrial facilities
• Manufacturing properties
• Large acreage operations
• Heavy material-handling applications

Its size and capability are exactly what attracted the current owner to the machine, but after getting it home, he determined that it is simply more forklift than he needs.

Diesel Power and 4WD Capability

This International M10A is equipped with a diesel engine and 4WD drivetrain, giving it the type of configuration buyers often seek when material handling needs extend beyond concrete floors.

The 4WD system can be particularly useful around gravel lots, packed dirt, farm lanes, lumber yards, construction properties, and similar outdoor environments where a conventional warehouse forklift may not be appropriate.

Exact engine model, horsepower, transmission configuration, and drivetrain specifications have not been supplied and should be verified from the machine's data plate or supporting documentation.

Enclosed Cab for Outdoor Operation

Another notable feature is the enclosed operator cab.

For businesses that plan to use a forklift outside throughout changing seasons and weather conditions, an enclosed cab can provide a major practical advantage over an open-station machine.

Buyers should inspect the cab and verify all controls, gauges, glass, doors, heating equipment, and other operator features that are important to their intended use.

Low Reported Hours

The hour meter is reported at approximately 700 hours.

Because of the machine's age, buyers should independently verify the meter reading and evaluate overall condition during inspection rather than relying on hours alone.

For a 1987 heavy-duty rough terrain forklift, the reported hours are certainly notable and should make this machine worth investigating for buyers searching for this type of equipment.

Recently Purchased — Selling Because It Is Too Large

There is a straightforward reason this forklift is back on the market.

The current owner recently purchased the M10A from the previous seller and transported it to his property. Once he had the machine home and could evaluate it in relation to the work he needed to perform, he realized that the forklift is simply too large for what he wants to use it for.

There is no supplied claim that he is selling because of a major mechanical problem. His stated reason is simply that the machine's size and capacity exceed his needs.

Instead of keeping it, he wants to turn around and sell it, recover approximately what he paid, and move on to equipment that better fits his operation.

$26,000 Asking Price — Seller Wants It Moved

The current asking price is $26,000.

The seller is open to reasonable offers and is highly motivated to get the forklift sold and moved as quickly as practical.

This is not being advertised with an artificially inflated price simply to leave a large negotiating margin. The current owner is primarily looking to recover his investment and get the machine into the hands of someone who can actually use its size and lifting capability.

Serious buyers are encouraged to inquire and make a reasonable offer.

A Serious Machine for the Right Buyer

The same size that makes this International M10A too much machine for the current owner's needs may be exactly what makes it attractive to another buyer.

Operations regularly moving heavy pallets, lumber packs, equipment attachments, machinery components, building materials, or other large loads may benefit from having a forklift designed for substantial outdoor material handling.

Rather than paying considerably more for a newer heavy-capacity rough terrain forklift, this older International may provide an alternative for a buyer who values straightforward heavy equipment and is comfortable inspecting and maintaining an older machine.

Buyer Inspection Encouraged

As with any used machine of this age, buyers should inspect the forklift before purchase and confirm that it meets their operational and lifting requirements.

Important areas to inspect include:

• Engine operation
• Transmission and drivetrain
• 4WD operation
• Steering
• Service brakes
• Parking brake
• Mast condition
• Lift cylinders
• Hydraulic hoses and fittings
• Fork condition
• Tires
• Cab and controls
• Fluid condition
• Structural components
• Data plate and rated capacity information

Exact lift height, fork dimensions, mast configuration, operating weight, engine specifications, tire sizes, and hydraulic specifications were not provided and should be independently confirmed.
