It can operate in aisles as narrow as 3.7 metres, and lift 1200kg+ to a max height of 4800mm, meaning it could be the only truck you need in your warehouse.

This forklift comes with an integrated lithium-ion battery and charger, meaning it can be simply plugged into the mains, eliminating battery maintenance nightmares. Experience the freedom of opportunity charging—the ability to charge your forklift multiple times during work hours—ensuring uninterrupted productivity throughout a full 8-hour shift. No more time wasted on battery topping.

What is the advantage of a lithium-ion battery forklift?

1. Reduced energy usage and lower bills
2. Less downtime, with convenient opportunity charging, and no cooling off time
3. Lithium-ion batteries typically last much longer than lead acid batteries
4. Low maintenance and labour costs as there is no engine with moving parts
5. Zero CO2 emissions, helping you meet emission targets and reduce your environmental impact
6. Don't require topping up with water, so are much safer and no risk of neglect

What is forklift telematics?

EP telematics is an electronic system for managing, monitoring and maintaining your fleet of forklifts.

• Reduce maintenance costs: the telematics system can identify potential mechanical problems before they occur. This means you can pre-schedule maintenance at a convenient time, reducing unexpected downtime.
• Diagnose and sometimes even repair issues remotely – your forklift will send error codes to our service partner, who may be able to fix those issues without a site visit.
• Improved safety: The telematics system can identify unsafe operation of the vehicle, meaning you can address them quicker. As well as this, the forklift will track all data before an accident has happened, making it easy to investigate the cause.
