Toyota Forklifts is raising the bar with its newest additions to the THD product line. The manufacturer has announced the launch of its adjustable wheelbase forklifts with the capacity to lift from 15,000 to 80,000 lb (6,800-36,000 kg). 

Named for the horizontally adjustable wheelbase, the newest cushion-tyre forklift to hit manufacturing floors this year is small enough to navigate tight spaces and strong enough to lift up to 80,000 lb. when fully extended.

Along with the unique horizontally adjustable wheelbase, the new Heavy-Duty model features rigger boom attachments for additional load support, a two-speed hydrostatic transmission and a 7 in. (18 cm) colour LCD multi-function touch screen to increase productivity, efficiency and convenience.

The newest models also feature an optional wireless remote control for operating the forklift outside of the normal seating position, which includes travel, steering and lifting functions. The optional wireless remote control allows the operator to guide the forklift precisely under the load for those high value moves, and can reduce the amount of spotters needed for a job.

This expansion is the fourth since the launch of the Heavy-Duty product line in 2015.
