The truck has been engineered for long load centers, wide loads and heavy duty-cycle conditions. Oversized and reinforced mast channels, rollers, stub shafts and chain anchors cater to heavy duty applications. A special purpose-built mast design for this truck series has been developed from the ground up featuring less mast deflection than comparable products with overhead tilt.
The steer axle is designed for longer life, providing an adjustable outside turning radius which reduces stress on the axles and improves tire life by mitigating tire scrubbing.
Open carriage design, mast chains mounted on the outside of the mast low cowl and increased space between mast channels and valve block location enable enhanced forward view of fork tips at travel and load height.
Curved, scratch resistant, tempered glass front and rear windshields, armored glass top window and steel-framed glass doors provide operators with excellent all-around visibility. On the exterior, sloping counterweights enhance visibility of steer tires for improved maneuverability and reduced tire gouging.
The ergonomically designed high visibility cab puts greater productivity within easy reach. Equipped with an armored glass top window, curved front and rear windows and steel doors with tempered glass, the operator cab provides excellent all-around visibility. Inside the cab there is more space with the largest entry area in the industry, more control with a full-color screen displaying performance data at the operator’s fingertips and more comfort with an exclusive lateral sliding seat, adjustable steering column and foot pedal, plus ergonomic controls.
