The operator compartment offers a practical and comfortable working environment with controls within easy reach to help reduce operator fatigue. Generous foot space, intuitive pedal arrangement and low step and hood heights providing a comfortable working space.
This means on/off access and driving in reverse causes less fatigue over long shifts. The steering column is infinitely adjustable via adjustable gas spring support and optional height adjustment is also available. The memory tilt option allows the steering column to be released to the most vertical position to allow the operator to get off the truck easily. When returning to the cab, the operator simply pulls the steer column back to the pre-set position.
Virtually maintenance free components such as brushless AC motors mean that the electrics require a full service check only after 1000 hours. In-built thermal protection on traction motors and advanced cooling system protect truck components, leading to reduced maintenance costs. Fast delivery of diagnostic information allows precise troubleshooting, easy maintenance planning and lower costs. E-braking and Steering systems reduce ‘wear parts’ and and are less vulnerable to ingress of dirt and floor debris, reducing maintenance costs.
Robust Zero Turn Radius (ZTR) axle with allow tight turning circles for excellent manoeuvrability in working aisles or congested loading/unloading bays. Dual front-wheel AC drive motors provides smooth acceleration and excellent travel and torque performance.
This is combined with powerful acceleration and auto regenerative braking to deliver precise efficient load handling. The ECO-eLo setting is designed to assure full shift of work on each charge and the High Performance (HiP) setting gives impressive truck performance.
The high visibility through mast provides improved forward operator visibility of forks and workplace. A range of robust masts (LFL and FFL) is available with several tilt options to suit the needs of every application. The mast design also ensures good visibility of the load and forks thanks to a wide mast window and neatly routed hoses. A choice of forks and carriages is available, including integral side shift carriages to make load handling easy and convenient.
