FUEL SYSTEM
Gasoline, LPG, or Dual-Fuel systems are
available. The gasoline fuel tank is integral to
the truck frame.
• In-tank mounted gasoline fuel delivery

pump, fuel-level sensing unit, pressure
regulator and fi lter are standard.

• LPG fuel system uses single-point, throttle

body fuel injection. A removable 33 lb.
fuel tank is available with a fold back tank-
mounting bracket.

COOLING SYSTEM
The high-capacity aluminum radiator is
designed with an effi cient thermal transfer
fi n and integral oil cooler for the transmis-
sion torque converter.
• High-volume cooling fan uses fl exible plastic

blades and shroud for maximum air volume
and noise abatement.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Standard instrument package and operator
conveniences:
• 12-volt electrical system
• 50A alternator with built-in IC regulator
• Key-lock, anti-restart ignition switch
• High-torque, low-amp starter motor with

planetary gear reduction

• Waterproof electrical connectors
• Electric fuel gauge, water temperature

gauge, LCD hour meter

• Indicator lights for Neutral/Return to

Neutral, Low Oil Pressure, Low Battery/
Alternator Output, Check Engine Warning,
Hydraulic Lock (Operator Presence), and
ECCS Status Code

• ECCS Service Support Tool connector for

rapid system diagnostics

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
The Hydraulic System features an integral
reservoir, direct drive gear pump and fully
fi ltered system.
• Large hydraulic fl uid reservoir integral to

the truck frame reduces heat buildup in
the system.

• Load sensing valve in the hydraulic circuit

reduces the fl ow of oil to the power steer-
ing system when steering wheel is idle.

FRAME
An all-welded assembly with heavy-gauge
steel and integral hydraulic and fuel tanks
provide exceptional durability.
• Welded front cross-member and bolted

drive axle increase frame rigidity.

• Loads are transferred directly from the mast

to the drive axle and onto the fl oor without
being transmitted through the frame,
reducing frame stress.

• Wide, open step is designed into the

frame assembly without compromising the
structure.

DRIVE AXLE
A heavy-duty, cast steel drive axle housing
supports the load and chassis without placing
a load on the free-fl oating axle shafts.
A fl ange is mounted to the truck frame to
improve load distribution and reduce
frame fl exing.

TRANSMISSION
Hamech single-speed, powershift transmis-
sion is specifi cally designed for industrial
applications.
• Column-mounted electrical shift lever gives

the operator easy directional control without
removing a hand from the steering wheel.

• Optimized stall ratio for torque converter

provides high torque without sacrifi cing
travel speed.

• A modulating control valve absorbs initial

pressure spikes during initial engagement
and directional change. This improves shift-
ing capabilities and prolongs the life of the
entire drive train.

• Transmission oil is double-fi ltered by a 125-

micron mesh on pickup, and a 35-micron
cartridge on the return line.

• Transmission oil cooler is integral with

the radiator.

• Inching control and auxiliary brake pedal

combination allows the operator precise
truck positioning with positive control.

BRAKES
Hydraulic brakes are self-energizing and
self-adjusting.
• Brake fl uid reservoir is located under the

console cover for fast, easy inspection and
maintenance.

• Heavy-duty brake backing plate and thick

brake drum provide reliable braking action
and reduced heat.

• Mechanical parking brake has two-stage

latching mechanism for positive engagement.

STEER AXLE
Fully Hydrostatic Power Steering is standard.
• Heavy-duty fabricated steer axle has dou-

ble-acting, double-ended power steering
cylinder and no drag links or tie rods.

• Steering stops are machined into the

steering cylinder to reduce stress impact
on steering linkages.

• Grease fi ttings on all linkages are acces-

sible without lifting the truck.

MAST, CARRIAGE, LBR AND FORKS
High-visibility mast assembly has a 4-roller
carriage that is available in two-, three-, and
four-stage Free Lift, Free View designs.
• Sealed bearings require no maintenance.
• Angle-mounted bearings and a shaped rail

fl ange prevent excessive wear and friction,
while maintaining correct side thrust
clearance.

• ITA Class II carriages accept a variety of fork

sizes and common load-handling attachments.

• 48-inch-high load backrest is standard for in-

creased load control and operator protection.

• Single or double auxiliary hydraulic-function

internal hose routing is available.

OPERATOR COMPARTMENT
A unique suspension compartment isolates
the operator from the fl oor surface and from
engine vibration, for greater operator
comfort and productivity.

• Comfort seat has built-in lumbar support,

retractable seat belt, lateral restraint sys-
tem, and fore and aft adjustment.

• Hydraulic control levers are positioned for

optimum access and ease of use. Inter-
national symbols on the contoured grips
indicate the function.

• Tilting steering console has small-diameter

steering wheel and electronic instrumen-
tation. Tilt is infi nitely adjustable, with
extended room between the engine cover
and console.

• Wide-open fl oorboard has suspended

brake and inching pedals with ribbed rub-
ber pads for comfort and safety. Integral
accelerator mechanism has a transfer roller
for smooth operation.

• Full-width rubber fl oor mat provides a

large, non-slip surface and reduces noise,
vibration and heat.

• Open step in the frame with a traction

surface and a large handgrip provide easy
entry and exit for the operator.

• Standard headlight/turn indicator control

lever is mounted on the steering column
for easy use.

• Full-width overhead guard provides excel-

lent visibility for high stacking and meets or
exceeds ITSDF requirements.

SERVICEABILITY
The engine and transmission can be easily
accessed for daily inspection without the use
of any tools.
• Single-piece, all-steel engine cover and

seat support is fully insulated to reduce
noise and heat transfer.

• Engine cover has gas-fi lled cylinder with

an automatic locking device to assist in
opening and to prevent the cover from

unexpectedly closing.
• Engine cover is shaped for easy access

into the engine area for maintenance
and service.

COMPLIANCE, APPROVALS AND
ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS

of life, with special attention to materials
and construction. Counterweight designed
for breakup during recycling process.
