Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks has launched its new FB60-120N(H) electric counterbalance series.

Mitsubishi has billed the FB60-120N(H) series as “an ideal alternative to IC engine trucks”, with 4WS, front axle drive motors turning in separate directions for precision, a rear axle with 101-degree steering capability and dual drive motors.

The new models, the largest in Mitsubishi’s electric range, feature a dual-battery system (two 48 V batteries, one on each side of the truck).

The cabin is rubber sealed on each model to reduce noise and a low overhead guard is available for all models, allowing use in container applications.

Mitsubishi’s FB60-120N(H) series ranges in capacity from 6,000 kg to 12,000 kg.
