The Manitou M 40 rough-terrain vertical-masted forklift has a maximum lift height of 19 feet 6 inches and maximum loading capacity of 8,179 pounds. The Manitou forklift is available in 2- and 4-wheel drive.
A 74-horsepower Perkins Tier 4-certified engine reduces fuel consumption by 13 percent, the company says, and delivers 235 lb.-ft. of torque. Ground clearance is 12 inches.
A load accumulator is standard equipment on the Manitou forklift and prevents shock and vibration for affecting the load, Manitou says. An oscillating rear axle and wide-stance front tires provide stability.
The new side shift mast is designed with one shaft for smoother shifting, moving the mast 3 inches to the left and 3 inches to the right. The side shift carriage will add additional hoses, but will shift 4 inches in either direction.
