Does anyone have an idea of the weight of an 1992 VF2? I am going to need to reant a forklift and I need to figure out how much I need to lift.

I see the newer ones are about 8000-9000 lbs but this is the older plactic inclosure and I was wondering if it was different.
1992 Haas VF-2 weights 6000 lbs.
Slightly under 8000lbs. You need a minimum of 10,000lb foklift with 8feet forks; it is better to go with 12,000 or 16,000lbs.
The big problem with lifting these things is not weight it is the location of the center of gravity way out on the forks; especially if you come in from the front. A 10,000lb forklift will lift okay from the back, a bit wobbly from the sides and from the front it is possible it will tip.
An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.
