Loading, production support and mixed indoor handling.
Use it where the truck must approach pallets, stillages or loads without support legs underneath.
General-purpose pallet handling
Electric counterbalance forklift.
A four-wheel seated truck with free fork approach for loading, production, yard and mixed pallet tasks—without load arms beneath the pallet.

01 / Application fit
Choose it for unrestricted fork approach.
The counterbalance layout can enter many pallet and load types directly. Its trade-off is a larger turning envelope than compact stackers or specialised reach trucks.
Aisle space, residual capacity and operating zone.
High racks, very narrow aisles, freezer duty, wet washdown or outdoor gradients may require a different family or configuration.
02 / Task principle
The counterweight balances the load ahead.
The chassis provides rear counterweight so the forks can approach the load without forward support legs.
Enter the load
Fork length, spread and attachment are matched to the pallet or unit load.
Raise within capacity
Mast height, load centre and attachment determine residual capacity.
Carry in the route
Floor, gradients, speed zones and visibility shape safe operation.
Position and withdraw
Free approach supports loading bays, stacks, racks and production equipment.
03 / Reference features
Electric power in a familiar forklift format.
The reference family targets general-purpose use with service access and battery choice.
Four-wheel stability
A conventional four-point chassis supports general material-handling tasks.
Ergonomic layout
The supplier highlights operator-focused seating and controls.
Battery choice
Lead-acid is listed as standard with lithium available as an option.
Service access
The family is promoted around convenient maintenance access.
1.6–2.0 t range
Two capacities cover common food-factory pallet loads.
Attachment review
Side shift, clamps or other attachments alter capacity and must be engineered.
04 / Reference specification
Engineering data.
Compare both capacities and note the change in weight, length and fork size.
* Supplier reference data. Final capacity depends on mast, lift height, load centre and any attachment.

05 / Project configuration
Configure the truck around the load at height.
Attachments and mast choices can change the headline capacity substantially.
Mast and overhead
Define both lift and clearance.
- Required fork height
- Collapsed and free-lift height
- Doorways, containers and ceilings
Load interface
Set fork and attachment requirements.
- Load dimensions and centre
- Fork length / spread
- Side shift or clamp review
Energy plan
Choose for the real shift.
- Lead-acid or lithium review
- Charging location and timing
- Duty cycle and peak demand
Food environment
Align materials and traffic controls.
- Cold, wet or corrosive exposure
- Tyres and floor condition
- Pedestrian zones and visibility aids
06 / Selection brief
Rated tonnes are not enough.
Provide the heaviest load, highest placement point and tightest route.
Start my fleet brief ↗- Load and centre of gravity
Weight, dimensions, pallet or stillage and any offset centre.
- Lift requirement
Top fork height, residual capacity and free-lift needs.
- Route and floor
Aisles, turns, gradients, dock plates and indoor/outdoor transitions.
- Attachment scope
Side shift, positioner, clamp or specialised load handling.
- Duty and charging
Shifts, travel, lift cycles, charging windows and electrical supply.
