CONT

Excellent all-round visibility with the front-loading truck saves time and money ... These trucks are ideally suited to manoeuvring in confined areas and positioning heavy loads at height (lift heights up to 7.5 m). There is a reduced risk of damaging goods or racks with this truck, as the driver can see up to 17% more of the forks ... This is achieved through the cab-forward design, a sculpted low-profile cowling and a narrow, offset steering column. The enhanced visibility simplifies pallet entry as the driver does not have to bend forward.
