To provide a forklift capable of improving the work efficiency of cargo handling.SOLUTION: A forklift 1 includes a traveling device 10 traveling on a road surface, a cargo handling fork 21 provided at the front of the traveling device 10, an outrigger 31 provided on a bottom surface of the traveling device 10, a shift device 23 switching an in-state where the fork 21 is positioned at the front of the traveling device 10 and an out-state where the position of the fork is shifted to a lateral direction from the front of the traveling device 10, a driving device 32 switching a ground contact state where the outrigger 31 is grounded to the road surface and a non-ground contact state where the outrigger is not grounded to the road surface, and a control device 40 controlling the shift device 23 and the driving device 32 such that the outrigger 31 starts the operation of switching between the ground contact state and the non-ground contact state and completes the operation during a period from the start to the completion of the shift operation where the fork 21 is switched between the in-state and the out-state.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】荷役の作業効率を高めることができるフォークリフトを提供する。【解決手段】フォークリフト１は、路面上を走行する走行装置１０と、走行装置１０の正面に設けられた荷役用のフォーク２１と、走行装置１０の底面に設けられたアウトリガー３１と、フォーク２１を走行装置１０の正面に位置するイン状態と走行装置１０の正面から横方向にシフトした位置のアウト状態とに切り替えるシフト装置２３と、アウトリガー３１を路面に接地した接地状態と路面に接地していない非接地状態とに切り替える駆動装置３２と、フォーク２１がイン状態およびアウト状態の一方から他方に切り替わるシフト動作の開始から完了までの間に、アウトリガー３１が接地状態および非接地状態の一方から他方に切り替わる動作を開始して完了するように、シフト装置２３および駆動装置３２を制御する制御装置４０とを備える。【選択図】図３
