Wade Johnson –
Can I put other tires on my Toyota 8FGCU25 so I can drive from one building to another on crushed rock? If so, what size and type of tires would I use?
Andy Guild –
You couldn’t put pneumatic shaped solids on a Toyota 8FGCU25. The best you can do is a lugged/treaded cushion tire. The drive tire size is 21x7x15. The steer tire size is 16x5x10.5

Good afternoon.
What is the point loading of each wheel for a Toyota 8FGCU25? Is it as simple as diving the weight of the vehicle across all four wheels to arrive at a point load of 2000lb?
Andy Guild –
Here’s the closest I can get you to an answer:
Weight distribution loaded – front/rear: 11310lbs / 1690 lbs
Weight distribution no load – front/rear: 2820lbs / 5180 lbs

The warning light with the wavy line inside a circle means the coolant level is low. The Toyota 4Y engine uses gold color coolant.
Andy Guild –
Error code E67-1 is a lift height sensor error. There is a gray apparatus on the right side of the mast – about 3-4 feet off the ground that senses both tilt and lift height, I think. We have found broken wires going to this unit. The way the wires are secured to the mast causes a lot of rubbing and wear. We’ve fixed the wires several times and this makes the code go away.

What’s the min. and max. weight of the battery?
Andy Guild –
The 8FGCU25 model has an internal combustion engine. So it only has a small starter battery like you would find in a car. If you’re looking for the min and max battery weight for the Toyota 8FBCU25 I can get you the minimum battery weight – 2400lbs for 36 and 48 volt models. I don’t have the maximum weight info.

Does this lift truck have a Class IV Carriage?
Andy Guild –
The Toyota 8FGCU25 has a Class II carriage.
John Curtis –
What are specifications on the backrest for this model?
Andy Guild –
Backrest sizes are optional. Typical backrest height is about 48″ total height. Width depends on your sideshift width. And mounting holes depend on what’s on the sideshift – front or side mount and distance between the mounting holes.
Joe Hemmings –
Any idea what the degree of incline the 8FGCU25 can handle without bottoming out?
Andy Guild –
The max gradeability with a load is 30%. Without a load is 17%. That answers the question of bottoming out be default, because any steeper grade and the forklift wouldn’t have the power to go up anyway.
