Fuel Type:
Gasoline, LPG, or Diesel (common for this class of forklift)
Horsepower Range:
Typically 40-60 HP, depending on engine and configuration.
Torque Range:
Specifications would be engine-dependent, crucial for lift capacity and power delivery.
Fuel Delivery:
Carburetor (for gasoline/LPG) or Fuel Injection (common on later diesel models). Manual will detail specific system.
Ignition Type:
Spark ignition for gasoline/LPG, compression ignition for diesel. Manual covers ignition components and timing.
Type:
Likely a Power Shift or Hydrostatic transmission (HST) for smooth operation and precise control.
Optional Types:
Not explicitly stated, but some models might offer different transmission configurations or torque converter options.
Control Method:
Lever-based or pedal-based controls for forward, reverse, and speed selection. Manual details operational logic.
Transmission Fluid Type:
Specific ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) or hydraulic fluid type, viscosity grade, and manufacturer specifications will be in the manual (e.g., Dexron III, or specific Mitsubishi recommendation).
Overall Length:
Varies based on mast and carriage configuration, but typically in the range of 2.0-3.0 meters excluding forks. Manual will provide precise dimensions.
Overall Width:
Typically around 1.0-1.2 meters. Manual provides exact width and turning radius.
Lift Height:
Variable, dependent on mast type (e.g., duplex, triplex). Ranges from 3 meters to over 6 meters. Manual specifies available mast types and their heights.
Operating Weight:
Typically between 3,000 kg to 4,500 kg. Manual will detail specific weight with battery/fluids.
Load Capacity:
Rated for 3,000 kg (approximately 6,000 lbs) at a standard load center (e.g., 500mm).
Fork Length:
Commonly 1070mm or 1220mm. Manual will specify applicable fork lengths.
Instrument Panel:
Basic indicators for engine oil pressure, coolant temperature, battery charge, fuel level, hour meter, and warning lights. Advanced models may have digital displays. Manual explains each indicator.
Operator Presence System:
