Speed: Mitsubishi's brand new FG25N unit forklift is available with a 2.1 L engine that is capable of outperforming other rival's units with 5,000 pound capacity. It is available with an optional 3.0 L engine. The FG25N provides better lowering and lifting speeds compared to its competition. It has better fuel economy and provides a slight edge regarding acceleration compared to its rival.
Fuel Economy: On a European testing field, the Mitsubishi forklift has always shown less fuel per hour than similarly sized Hyster, Nissan and Toyota models. To be able to illustrate this point, compared to the Hyster truck, the FG25N used around 1 lb. less per hour. This amount of fuel could add up to thousands of dollars over the lifetime of the truck.
Mitsubishi's electric forklift trucks using alternating current or AC use thermal efficiencies and a lot of the other new technologies to produce high efficiency ratings. These are amongst the features that really make these units very popular.
Visibility: The Mitsubishi diesel forklift designers take into account both the opening between the mast channels and the free lift assembly with the result that all brand new trucks feature a a narrow lift cylinder and wider free space between the masts compared to their rival's units. This design improves visibility and helps to lessen operator exhaustion.
Operator Comfort: On the Mitsubishi forklift trucks, the newly designed operator restraint system is made from steel-wrapped hip restraints with a foam material. This specific design offers much more strength and comfort than competitors' units. The equipment have seat belts which feature a comfort stretch elastic strap to facilitate using the lift truck in reverse. The hydraulic levers which take much less energy to operate and the small maneuverable steering wheel contribute to greater overall comfort and help to decrease operator fatigue.
The staff at Mitsubishi could show you comparisons to the competition and all of the competitive data of these factors. The salespeople could discuss the overhead guards, the sideshifter designs and the drive axle strength. They will be very happy to answer any other questions or issues you have and discuss maintenance intervals so as to help educate you to make an excellent decision.
