Toyota Material Handling has launched two AC-powered walkie pallet jacks under the Tora-Max brand.

These new models add to Toyota’s line-up of electric products and are designed for customers in the warehousing, manufacturing, beverage, retail and distribution industries. Both models are available for order online and at TMH dealers across North America.

“These new ergonomic walkies are perfect for customers who need a fast, turnkey solution for their materials handling needs,” says TMH product planning manager Jena-Christine Lawrence. “This product launch is the latest example of Toyota’s mission to provide versatile and valuable solutions for any type of customer.”

The Compact Tora-Max Walkie Pallet Jack has a capacity of up to 3,300 lb. (1,500 kg) and features a multifunction control handle with ergonomic hand grips, fingertip controls of all functions, and an LCD display that shows battery usage and important truck information such as fault codes and working hours.

The full-size Tora-Max Walkie Pallet Jack is built to carry up to 4,000 lb. (1,800 kg), and its high ground clearance permits easy operation over transitions and uneven surfaces. This model comes equipped with an AC drive motor and a sealed, maintenance-free lead-acid battery with a built-in charger to maximise uptime.
