I was wondering, what options would I have for snow removal, with a
pneumatic tire forklift similar to this one:

(5k Cat propane forklift)

thanks

Can't get your link to load.But no matter,forklifts are TERRIBLE in
snow. They don't even do wet grass. Leave the truck inside. A scoop
shovel would be faster.

Now, I bet you can find a great snowblower that only needs a minor
repair for $50.

Karl, try this link:

This is an outdoor forklift.

Right?

That link works. Your lift is very similar to mine. Your unit will be
worthless in even one inch of snow. If you need a reason the weight
distribution is all wrong. Huge counter weight over the non driving
wheel makes it far worse than those old rear wheel drive pickups.
