Toyota 8FBRE series reach forklifts

Toyota Material Handling Australia has introduced a range of narrow-aisle, battery-electric reach forklift trucks that provide safe, reliable and comfortable operation for a range of applications.

The 8FBRE Series models have lifting capacities from 1.2 to 1.6 tonnes with a maximum lift height of 8.5 m.

Features include a high degree of control, fast and smooth operation via easy-to-use fingertip control levers, a pedal layout that mimics a car, and electronically controlled 180° or 360° steering.

The seat and steering console are fully adjustable by the operator, and the height of the cab floor can also be adjusted to three different positions if required. Operators can also customise the settings for maximum speed and acceleration, automatic braking and steering sensitivity.

The forklifts include safety features including PIN-code start-up, automatic parking brake, clear view mast and overhead guard, optional tilting forks, emergency cut-off and electronic speed control.

Regenerative braking technology transfers brake energy back into the battery to provide extended run times between charging.
