3-Wheel Electric Forklifts

OVERVIEW

 

Manufactured using the industry’s latest technology to provide users with powerful lifting performance, low battery consumption and agile control. Fast and efficient to maintain, these models have interchangeable parts so that forklift service engineers can replace them easily within minutes. Smart-Dash innovation and onboard diagnostics make it possible to service and repair without a laptop. Both models can come with tailored equipment.

 

Available from our forklift sales department to customers in all Surrey, Sussex and South East areas including Brighton, Croydon, Dartford, East Grinstead, Epsom, Heathrow, Leatherhead, Maidstone, Sittingbourne and Tunbridge Wells.

 

FEATURES

 

• Internal overhead guard rear light unit

• Brake and direction indicators

• Mounted anti-glare beacon

• Side, rear and reversing lights

• Optional LED lighting

• Optional blue safety lighting

• Optional secondary LED lighting

• CE approved configuration for full road + work

 

OPERATOR COMFORT

 

A full floating and vibration-free driver compartment with an ergonomic design, a single pendant mounted brake pedal and an adjustable suspension seat. This model provides optimal comfort over long periods of time for operators in Guildford, Horsham, Paddock Wood and Redhill, and for those in all other areas around Crawley who buy or hire through our forklift sales service.

 

The adjustable steering column makes it simple for the operator to achieve the perfect driving position and the steel floor plate removes easily, in one piece, for forklift services and repairs. Rubber moulded floor mats minimise vibration.

 

SAFETY

 

All Velox models have an Operation Presence Sensing (OPS) system which locks off all hydraulic and transmission functions if the operator leaves the seat.

 

INSTRUMENTATION

 

LCD Smart-Dash monitoring provides a fast, concise diagnostic check of every important engine element, the truck parameters and forklift service information. Smart-Dash shuts this model down to protect the engine and transmission systems if parameters fall outside of their recommended ranges.

 

This reduces the potential for major damage in the event of a breakdown to keep servicing and repair costs low.

 

STEERING

 

A top-of-the-range Eaton orbital valve enables a superior level of steering for more manoeuvrability, while the Nexen axle has tapered kingpin roller bearings for more comfort, better durability and longer intervals between servicing.

 

COUNTERWEIGHT

 

This forklift comes with a modern low-slung design to enhance stability. The design and shape offer maximum visibility when driving in reverse while offering optimised cooling even in the most challenging and demanding of work environments.

PERFORMANCE

 

Drive Motor – Fitted with an innovative rear-drive motor for high-traction power and improved driving dynamics, even on inclines and uneven ground. These models have dust and water jet protection features. Efficient, maintenance-free AC motors guarantee a longer battery life and the constant lubrication of the rugged independent drive gears, in an oil reservoir, ensure quiet levels of operation on top of years of problem-free forklift service.

 

AC Driving Controllers – A regenerative braking system increases the useful battery life, and AC traction and lifting technology improve reliability over longer shifts. The intelligent LCD display, which is fully programmable, alerts the operator, and forklift service engineers, to stored fault codes. This makes is easier to diagnose, service and repair these models.

 

Brakes – Maintenance-free brakes for safe, controlled stopping, with a motor brake that allows for regenerative slowing or halting when accelerating. The parking brake engages automatically for a more secure stop, even on uneven ground and inclines. The wet disc brake has a long service life to reduce maintenance.

 

Hydraulics – Smooth lifting and lowering, at rapid speeds, through a high-power hydraulic motor with exceptional levels of torque. Our forklift sales department can demonstrate the hydraulic system for customers in Crawley, Guildford, Horsham, Paddock Wood, Redhill and all surrounding Surrey, Sussex and Kent areas.

 

Steering System – On-demand power steering keeps battery consumption at low levels through a main hydraulic pump. These models have two drive motors to match the controller, and this provides a smoother steering experience across all angles. The system helps the forklift to turn, manoeuvre and accelerate, even from full turn start positions.

 

Mast – The mast comes in high-strength steel sections with rollers that deliver low deflection and superior rigidity. Behind-the-rail cylinders ensure an unobstructed view over a wider angle. Flow limitation valves handily regulate the lowering speed of the carriage in the event of a hose failure. I-section channels increase the overall strength of these forklifts.

 

OPERATION AND SAFETY

 

• Adjustable steering wheel over a large angle

• Ample driving space

• Rear-drive motor delivers tight space manoeuvrability

• Ergonomic control levers make operation easier

• Clear driver observation and nicely arranged instruments

• Large pedal space with handrails for safe entry and exit

• Comfortable, spacious seat with buffering

• Wide viewing angles through a large arc rear view mirror

• The wider view through the mast increases user efficiency

• Immediate shut-off using a close-to-hand emergency button

• Safety switch halts machinery when user leaves the seat

 

SERVICEABILITY

 

The ergonomic layout of key features, such as the drive and pump motors, the brake pedal, the oil pipes and footrest make it easier to perform a forklift service or repair work. Sideway battery removal makes changeovers fast and efficient. The inbuilt roller bed and side frame cover remove easily too for simple battery handling during multishift operations. Simple brake fluid reservoir access enables fast replenishment.

 

A brushless AC motor reduces maintenance and high-end AMP connectors stop contaminations from interrupting operation. Wires and cables fitted with protection to reduce faults. Rapid foot board removal makes access to the motor, and all other components, extremely easy.
