The right RTFL depends on your typical load weights, lift heights and site conditions.
Consider the following:

- Lift height: ensure the machine can reach the required stacking height
- Ground conditions: rougher terrain may require a more powerful model with larger tyres
- Attachment needs: some jobs require specific attachments such as buckets or clamps
- Space and turning areas: tighter sites may benefit from more compact models
