Toyota 8-Series 4-wheel Electric Forklift

Once again, Toyota ingenuity and design have come together to create the revolutionary 8-Series 4-wheel electric forklift with the AC (Alternating Current) drive system. Yet the AC drive motor isn't the only milestone component driving these products. Toyota's exclusive System of Active Stability™ (SAS) shares the spotlight. These two industry-leading technologies combine to elevate operator productivity and workplace safety to unprecedented levels.

• Curvilinear overhead guard legs provide a wider opening for operator entry/exit.
• Electric shift lever offers easily accessible fingertip control for fast and easy directional changes.
• Automotive style light switch and turn signal levers are integrated into the slim profile steer column for easy accessibility and simple operation.
• 12-inch-long dual operator assist grips have been designed to meet the needs of varying operator sizes and are in line with the overhead guard pillars for improved operator peripheral vision.
• Low profile front cowl results in enhanced forward visibility and lessens back strain by reducing the need for the operator to lean forward to view load and fork tips.
• Foot-activated parking brake further lessens operator back strain by reducing the need to lean forward to activate and disengage parking brake. Foot brake location also eliminates clutter from cowl area, enhancing forward visibility.
• Overly spacious legroom provides unsurpassed comfort levels throughout the operator's work shift.
• Heavy-duty, non-slip floor mat adds to this comfort by minimizing noise, heat and vibration.

• High mount key switch and parking brake release lever have been strategically placed to minimize the need for an operator to lean forward in the seat.
• Cowl-mounted hydraulic levers are ergonomically situated for improved operator comfort and unobstructed entry/exit from the right side of the truck.
• AC Motors have no brushes, springs, commutator or wearable parts to service and replace, resulting in fewer, quicker and less expensive maintenance needs.
• On-demand, full hydrostatic power steering is controlled through the AC hydraulic motor system, eliminating an additional motor to service.
• No-tool floorboard lifts out in seconds for fast, easy access during daily operator checks.
• Fault code memory with hour meter reading displays lift truck history to simplify troubleshooting.
