Usage Features:
- Masts: Feature nested channels for maximum visibility, reinforced for torsional rigidity, and oversized stub shafts for impact resistance. Chains are designed on the outside of the mast to enhance visibility.
- Carriages: Available in various configurations including pin-type, integral pin-type fork positioner (simultaneous or individual control), integral pin-type sideshift, integral dual function sideshift fork positioner, and apron style sideshift fork positioner. Overall width is 100 inches (2540 mm).
- Forks: Offered in three types: Pin Type (Standard Profile), Integral Pin Type (for use with DFSSFP), and QD Hook Type (for use with DFSSFP - Quick Disconnect), in two sizes (96" long x 3.9" x 7.9" or 96" long x 3.5" x 9.8").
- Engine: Standard Tier 4 Final Cummins QSB 6.7L diesel engine delivers robust power and torque, featuring cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), selective catalytic reduction (SCR), and a water-cooled variable geometry turbocharger. Innovative selectable ECO performance modes optimize fuel economy and productivity.
- Transmission: ZF WG-161 three-speed, fully reversing powershift transmission provides smooth shifting, precise inching, and fast acceleration. It includes proportional valves, electronic inching control, and cushioned clutch lock-up for smooth shifts and dampening drive line shock loads.
- Hydraulic System: Hyster on-demand load sensing hydraulic system with Variable Displacement Pump (VDP) technology ensures efficient power delivery, reduced heat generation, and extended component life. It is capable of more oil displacement even at low engine speeds.
- Steering System: Designed for high loads and long life, with a one-piece axle frame. Oil-bathed wheel bearings are sealed to prevent contamination. Load-sensed steering provides low effort, and a fully adjustable steering angle limiter reduces tire scrubbing.
- Drive Axle: Rugged Kessler D81 drive axle with a full-floating design.
- Brakes: Oil cooled wet disc brake system designed for high load capacities.
- Operator Area: Ergonomically designed with hydraulic controls and high/low range control lever within easy reach. Features three steps and hand grips for easy access, an angled floor plate and pedals, telescopic/tilt steer column, and a supportive mechanical full-suspension seat.
- Operator Presence System (OPS): Ensures the operator is in the normal operating position before any travel or mast movement can be initiated, and locks out these functions if the operator leaves the seat.
- Optional Equipment: Includes Tier 3 engine (for Latin American markets), various mast lift heights, sideshifting carriages, fork positioners, various fork options, multifunction joystick, MONOTROL® pedal direction control, radial and pneumatic-shaped solid tires, enclosed cabs (with or without A/C), multiple cabin/seat options, 3-point high visibility seat belts, powered tilting operator compartment, visible alarm/amber strobe light, various high-performance LED and halogen light kits, lockable fuel cap, high mount exhaust/air intake, hydraulic accumulator, various traction speed limiters, empty seat engine shutdown, lifting eyes, steer wheel lug protection, engine block heater, front/rear mud flaps, H-pattern wiper, and mechanical mast tilt indicator.
