Forklift truck (1) mounted on a carrier vehicle and comprising a frame (16), forks (2), a lifting cylinder (4) for relatively moving the forks (2) and the frame (16) so as to allow, in a handling mode of operation, wherein the forks (2) are mounted so as to move freely upwards and downwards relative to the ground, the forks (2) to be lifted, and in a carrying mode of operation, wherein the forks (2) are in the high position and immobilised so that they do not move upwards and downwards relative to the ground, to allow the frame to be lifted (16), each chamber (7, 8) of the cylinder (4) being provided with a connecting fluid duct which connects the chamber (7; 8) to a hydraulic source. In the handling mode of operation, the forks (2) form an element which is used to actuate the lifting cylinder (4) in the direction in which the forks (2) are lowered, the fluid ducts of the chambers (7, 8) of the lifting cylinder (4) being connected to one other by a fluid connection provided with a closing member in the closed position at least in the carrying mode of operation when the frame (16) is being driven in the direction in which the frame (16) is lifted.
