Balkancar Record DV 1798.33.110 SR

Models in the database carry internal factory codes such as DV 1630.33.017S or DV 1784.33.111S; there is no publicly documented, consistent translation of these number sequences into capacity or build-year figures — they follow the plant's internal drawing/production numbering.

Models recorded here span own weights of 2,680 to 11,000 kg, capacities of 1,250 to 8,000 kg, and lift heights of 3,300 to 4,500 mm, with diesel engines of 2,500 to 3,860 cm³ displacement — a classic programme of rugged counterbalance trucks from production close to the COMECON bloc.

For a used Balkancar, spare parts are the decisive question: the simple, mechanically oriented design makes repairs by independent workshops easier, but original parts from Bulgarian production are often only obtainable indirectly outside south-eastern Europe. As with any older diesel forklift, check the mast, axle bearings and hydraulic pump condition.
