KOMATSU FB18MG-3 SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

Technical Description

The Komatsu FB18MG-3 is a compact, electric-powered forklift designed for efficient material handling with a load capacity of 3,500 lbs and a 23.7-inch load center. It operates on a 36V electric system, featuring a traction motor output of 8 kW and a hoist motor power of 12 kW, making it well-suited for indoor environments requiring zero emissions. The forklift's overall dimensions include a length to fork face of approximately 6.8 ft, an overall width of 3.6 ft, and a height to the top of the overhead guard of 6.4 ft, allowing effective maneuverability in confined spaces. The mast is a two-section type with a maximum fork height of 10.9 ft, offering a right-angle stack reach of about 6.8 ft, with forward and rear mast tilts of 5 and 7 degrees, respectively, to assist precise load placement. Ground clearance is set at 4 inches, and the turning radius is tight at 5.4 ft, supported by a wheelbase of 4.7 ft for improved agility. The forklift runs on cushion solid tires, equipped with two front and two rear wheels, and has an operating weight of 8,180 lbs. It achieves a maximum speed of 8.4 mph (13 kph), balancing power and control for safe operations. Overall height with the mast lowered measures around 7.3 ft, facilitating entry through standard doorways and operational overhead constraints. This unit combines compact size, electric efficiency, and adequate lift capabilities tailored to warehouse, manufacturing, or distribution center applications where environmental and space considerations are critical.
