Abstract
A forklift truck with a forward-tilting cab and a method for reducing the container-loading height of the forklift truck, include a cab and a frame, the cab being connected to the frame so as to be able to tilt forward; and also including a locating mechanism, which is removably provided between the cab and frame when the cab is tilted forward to reduce the cab height, so as to locate the cab when the cab is tilted forward to a preset angle. When loading into a container, the cab of the forklift truck is tilted forward to a preset angle, so that the overall height of the forklift truck is reduced to a height suitable for loading in a container, and the locating mechanism is used to locate the cab, so that the cab is kept in a state in which it is tilted forward to a preset angle.
