ride-onexterior4-wheel

Overview
The CASE 588H rough terrain forklift delivers high-capacity material handling for off-road and construction-site environments. With an 8,000 lb (3,628 kg) rated lift capacity, fast lift cycles and roading speeds up to 24 mph (38.6 km/h), it is engineered for efficient transport and precise placement of loads across uneven ground. Design features prioritize operator visibility and load control to maintain productivity and safety in demanding conditions.

Walkaround
Engineered for faster lift-and-move cycles, the 588H achieves two full lift/load cycles in under 60 seconds and combines a wide-channel dual-mast layout with a low-profile hood and perforated canopy for enhanced sightlines. Choose the open-air canopy or the factory-built cab for operator comfort and protection on long shifts.
