Another mystery Linde forklift - dual front tyred model

Just snapped this picture this morning at the former Swan Hunter shipyard. There are lots of these large stone blocks being moved around for whatever reason - and this large Linde forklift is doing the bulk of the work it seems.

Anyone have any idea on a model number for this one?

Thanks.

Thanks for all your replies.

"Linde lingo" is a good term, as someone who isn't really familiar with forklift truck terms it is a bit on the confusing side. But at least knowing the machine in question is a 16ton capacity H160 truck (series 358) is a nice title for my pictures when/if I ever get them online.

Thanks again for all your help.

You're correct. It is a 358 series truck. The truck was made from 26,000# to 35,000# capacity at 48" load center, except for the 35,000# truck which was rated at 24" load center as well.

22,000 @ 24 Model H100

It is an H160D or H160-1200. An H160 is rated at 24" load center and an H160-1200 is rated at 48" load center. In Linde lingo it would be considered a "359" series truck.
