Performance Specifications

Steering Synchronizer System The P-series features an advanced steering synchronizer that seamlessly switches between hydrostatic and non-hydrostatic steering modes, maintaining consistent steering knob position relative to rear wheels. This system enables effortless straight-line travel while navigating narrow warehouse aisles, reducing operator fatigue during extended shifts in busy distribution facilities.
Compact Design for Confined Spaces Engineered with a smaller, lightweight design compared to larger counterbalance trucks, the P-series accesses areas typically restricted to conventional forklifts. This compact footprint enables operation in congested warehouse layouts and narrow aisles, providing agility essential for manufacturing and food processing environments where space optimisation is critical.
Operator Safety Features The full suspension safety seat with integrated belt and seat switch meets South African OHS regulations, while the double-action parking brake lever prevents unintended movement when operators leave the seat. The Operator Presence System provides audible and visual visibility reminders, complemented by standard rear grab bar with horn button and ground speed control.
