KALMAR DCE80-45 E7 SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

The Kalmar DCE80-45 E7 forklift is a heavy-duty empty container handler designed for industrial and port applications. It features an overall width of approximately 13.2 feet and a wheelbase close to 15 feet, offering stability during operation. The forklift has a robust load capacity of 17,637 pounds (8 tons) at the load center, suitable for handling large and heavy containers. Weighing around 77,162 pounds in operating weight, it supports demanding lifting tasks with pneumatic tires on both front and rear axles (2 wheels each), providing traction and shock absorption on rough surfaces. The chassis includes lifting eyes and a towing pin for enhanced utility, while the Kalmar-designed steering axle uses double-acting steer cylinders and maintenance-free rubber bushings to ensure responsive and reliable maneuverability. Power comes from a Volvo TAD720VE diesel engine, coupled with a Spicer Off-Highways transmission and Kessler D81 drive axle, offering efficient power delivery and durability. Cooling systems for the engine and transmission maintain optimal operating temperatures. Operator comfort is addressed through a spacious cabin with 1500 mm internal height, adjustable climate control with recirculation, and safety features such as anti-slip steps and rearview mirrors on both sides. The forklift complies with ANSI B56.1 safety standards and features an EMC-approved electrical system. Instrumentation includes fuel and hour meters, engine and transmission temperature monitoring, and warning indicators for low oil pressure and high temperature, enhancing operational safety and maintenance awareness. This model is specifically optimized for effective empty container handling at ports and intermodal terminals.
