Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift America Inc. (MCFA) has introduced its FBC23N - FBC30LN line of 4,500–6,500 lb. capacity electric cushion tire forklifts.
The new forklifts feature advanced AC motors and optimized regenerative braking systems. The two-stage hydraulic system determines the optimum motor speed, resulting in reduced energy consumption and longer run times.
Design features, such as an easily removable side, top, floor and rear access panels, make accessing the forklift’s motors and major components simple. The forklift’s compact design also provides a tighter turning radius when loading and unloading trailers or working in cramped conditions.
The FBC series of forklifts was designed for optimal comfort. Operators can easily adjust the seat to their preferences. The low-profile steering wheel also provides extra space and comfort.
The Integrated Presence System (IPS) uses both audible and visual indicators to alert operators to potentially hazardous situations, while increasing overall operator awareness.
Flexible productivity options, such as foot directional control, rear grab handle with horn button, sideshifter and overhead guard options, are also available to further customize the forklift to the specific application.
