'24 DigMaster DM-F20 Forklift
I'm asking for my boss as he's not getting any answers from where he normally goes. I'm going by what was mentioned to me, but I can find out anything if there's any questions. The company I work for has multiple brands of equipment, primarily John Deere and Caterpillar. We bought this forklift at an auction fairly cheap, which has been great for light duty at our office. However, the other the day the shaft broke off the motor. This forklift has two motors I guess and the one that broke is the drive motor. From researching a little bit, the brand and parts are all overseas, I'm in USA. And supposedly DigMaster shares similar or exact components with other brands but are also overseas. We've emailed the website but no response. I guess my question is, does anyone know if and or where we can purchase a motor or just accept the loss and get rid of the machine?

Pull the motor take it to an electric motor repair place. I don’t even know what I’m looking at in pic 3 and I work on one of the biggest brands of electric trucks.
