1999 John Deere 488E Forklift

Purple WaveEquipment📍Kansas City, MO
GovAuctions Summary

A 1999 John Deere 488E four-wheel-drive forklift with an 8,000-pound capacity and 10,086 hours, a rough-terrain or lumber-yard machine. Lumber yards, construction contractors, and forklift dealers buy these, so it sells as-is or after light service. The listing says it needed a jump start during data collection, so test the charging system and confirm the powershift and mast functions under load.

Estimated flip margin and comp range available with Pro. Summary may occasionally contain inaccuracies; check the full description before bidding.
