Case 586H Forklift – Parts, Specs & Serial Numbers

Description:

The Case 586H is a next-generation rough terrain forklift offering superior lift capacity, enhanced fuel efficiency, and updated operator ergonomics. As the successor to the 586G, the 586H brings Tier 4 Final engine technology, improved mast control, and increased reliability under extreme conditions.

Designed for high-volume material handling in construction, agriculture, and industrial yards, the 586H boasts a 6,000 lb lift capacity, up to 22 feet of lift height, and excellent visibility through its newly designed overhead guard and mast system. Combined with 2WD or optional 4WD, the 586H dominates uneven terrain with confidence.

• Brake Components: Hydraulic wet-disc system; find brake rebuild kits

Common Issues & Quick Fixes:

• DPF Regeneration Problems: If auto-regeneration fails, perform manual regen or inspect temp sensors. Keep exhaust system clear.

• Low Hydraulic Power: Usually clogged return filter or worn pump. Replace hydraulic filters and pump.
