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.

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.

Fact of the week
Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
