In the realm of heavy-duty industrial handling, every lift and transport of goods is crucial to efficiency and safety. Our newly launched 3.5T Four-Cylinder Diesel Forklift emerges as the ideal choice for enterprises aiming to boost logistics efficiency and reduce operational costs, thanks to its exceptional performance, innovative design, and reliable quality. It is not just a handling device but a powerful catalyst for your business growth.
I. Robust Power: Effortlessly Tackling Heavy-Duty Challenges
Equipped with a Huichai/Weifang 490/Yunnei four-cylinder diesel engine delivering 45/42kW power, this forklift utilizes advanced fuel injection technology and a turbocharging system to generate robust torque. With a 3500kg rated lifting capacity, it effortlessly handles full-load starts and 爬坡作业 (slope operations), ensuring stable and sustained power output. The 3800kg gross vehicle weight, combined with a 1360mm wheelbase and 1380mm track width, creates a perfect weight distribution, guaranteeing excellent stability during high-speed driving and turning. Even in complex working conditions, it inspires full confidence in drivers.
II. Sturdy Structure: Forging Durable Quality
The forklift’s mast is integrally formed from high-strength steel, with a standard lifting height of 3m. The 6° forward tilt and 12° backward tilt design of the mast effectively prevents cargo from sliding during loading/unloading and stacking, enhancing operational safety. The 1220mm extra-long forks, forged from special alloy steel and subjected to rigorous heat treatment, offer high strength and toughness. With a maximum outer adjustment of 1100mm, the forks adapt to various pallet and cargo sizes, meeting diverse handling needs. A 220mm ground clearance, paired with 28×9-15 front tires and 650-10 rear tires, ensures excellent passability, allowing the forklift to navigate smoothly across flat warehouse floors or gravel-covered outdoor sites, effortlessly overcoming obstacles.
III. Safety as a Priority: Protecting the Entire Operation
Safety is at the core of our design philosophy. The forklift is equipped with a sturdy full-steel overhead guard frame that meets international safety standards, effectively shielding drivers from falling objects and providing a reliable safety barrier. The hydraulic system features built-in anti-burst valves that swiftly activate to lock the mast in case of oil pipe bursts, preventing sudden cargo drops and avoiding safety incidents. Additionally, the vehicle is equipped with an intelligent sensing system that only allows startup when the driver is properly seated and wearing a seatbelt, eliminating risks from misoperations and ensuring comprehensive safety for operators.
IV. Human-Centric Design: Enhancing Operational Experience
The cockpit is designed with ergonomics in mind. The four-way adjustable steering wheel and suspended shock-absorbing seat can be precisely tailored to drivers’ heights and habits, effectively reducing fatigue during long drives. The operation handles are logically laid out to match the natural movements of the human hand, enabling easy and convenient operation—even during prolonged continuous use, fatigue is minimized. The dashboard features a high-definition LCD screen that real-time displays key vehicle data, such as speed, load weight, and engine status, allowing drivers to stay informed and make timely adjustments for efficient operations.
V. Flexibility and Efficiency: Adapting to Diverse Scenarios
With a minimum turning radius of 2400mm and a compact size of 2900×1380×2200mm, the forklift can maneuver flexibly in narrow warehouse aisles and crowded workshop environments, easily completing cargo handling and stacking tasks. A travel speed of 20km/h, combined with excellent power performance, significantly reduces cargo transportation time and improves operational efficiency. Whether it’s daily cargo handling in logistics and warehousing centers, heavy equipment transportation in factory workshops, or material handling on construction sites, the 3.5T four-cylinder diesel forklift delivers exceptional performance, thanks to its superior capabilities.
The 3.5T four-cylinder diesel forklift redefines the standards of heavy-duty handling with its robust performance, reliable safety guarantees, and human-centric design. Choosing our forklift means choosing efficiency, safety, and reliability—injecting strong momentum into your enterprise’s development and opening a new chapter in logistics handling.
