2012 HOIST F220-B SIT-DOWN FORKLIFTS

Technical Description

THE 2012 HOIST F220-B IS A HIGH-CAPACITY CUSHION TIRE FORKLIFT DESIGNED FOR HEAVY-DUTY INDOOR INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS. IT FEATURES A RATED LIFT CAPACITY OF 22,000 LBS AT A 24-INCH LOAD CENTER. THE MACHINE IS TYPICALLY POWERED BY A GM 4.3L V6 LPG ENGINE, THOUGH DIESEL AND GASOLINE OPTIONS WERE ALSO MANUFACTURED. POWER IS DELIVERED THROUGH A DANA THREE-SPEED AUTOMATIC POWERSHIFT TRANSMISSION AND AN AXLETECH HEAVY-DUTY PLANETARY DRIVE AXLE. THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM IS LOAD-SENSING WITH VARIABLE PUMPS TO OPTIMIZE OIL FLOW, IMPROVING LIFTING CYCLES AND FUEL EFFICIENCY WHILE PREVENTING ENGINE STALLING. THE F220-B IS BUILT ON A RIGID WELDED CHASSIS WITH HEAVY STEEL CROSS SUPPORTS AND FEATURES A 12-VOLT ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WITH COLOR-CODED WIRING. STANDARD SAFETY AND ERGONOMIC FEATURES INCLUDE A TILT-STEERING COLUMN, DUAL BRAKE PEDALS WITH INCHING CONTROL, A SPRING-APPLIED HYDRAULIC-RELEASE PARKING BRAKE, AND AN OVERHEAD GUARD MEETING ANSI B56.1 FOPS STANDARDS. THE LIFTING ASSEMBLY UTILIZES A HIGH-VISIBILITY MAST, OFTEN CONFIGURED AS A TWO-STAGE OR TRIPLEX (THREE-STAGE) UNIT, WITH IMPACT-RESISTANT MAIN AND SIDE THRUST ROLLERS. MANEUVERABILITY IS FACILITATED BY A COMPACT 80-INCH WHEELBASE AND AN INDUSTRIAL STEER AXLE WITH A DUAL-ACTION BOLT-ON CYLINDER. THE EXTERIOR IS FINISHED WITH A TWO-PART RUST-INHIBITING POLYURETHANE BASE AND TOP COAT FOR CORROSION PROTECTION.
