| RELIABILITY | • By focusing on enhancing reliability and reducing downtime, the XF Series is able to increase productivity for the end-users. • The patented plated-fin aluminum radiator is used to increase cooling and improved the forklift’s capability in harsh, hot environments. • Dampening pads are placed where the chassis meets the steering axle, engine, torque converter, and overhead guard. • The suspension seat also comes standard. This is all included in the design to reduce the amount of vibration to the operator and increase operator comfort. • The chassis, mast, and front/rear axle are designed to be strong. These components are also made with durable components. This is all done to increase the safety and reliability of the truck when for use in high strength applications. • The controllers, relays, and safety fuses are all placed in the dust and water-free controller box. The main electronic components are also waterproof. This allows the operator to use the forklift in wet environments. • The new stamped air cleaner, with a double seal safety filter, is durable, corrosion-free, and vibration-resistant. This provides better filtration efficiency and lowers intake resistance. • The brake and steering hydraulic systems are separated to prevent interference between each other and increase reliability. • The battery is located above the fuel tank in a battery box. An adiabatic plate is placed between the box and the fuel tank to prolong the battery’s working life. • The gearbox oil is fed through a return oil filter and multi-valve to improve the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil and improve the systems working life. |
| PRODUCTIVITY | • Thanks to a series of technological innovations, the efficiency of the truck is improved and energy consumption is reduced. • By optimizing the transmission design, the engineers were able to increase the maximum driving speed by 20% • The new efficient lighting system uses LEDs and a new type of reflector to reduce energy consumption. This significantly improves illumination performance while also prolonging operation time. • The new dynamic load sensing hydraulic steering system requires 15% less hydraulic oil while providing a 15% increase in lifting speed. |
| COMFORTABLE OPERATION | • The new relocated, easy-to-see LCD instrument display lets the operator check on all aspects of operational status with a glance. • The new automobile-style light/turn-signal stalk and the forward-reverse lever are ergonomically designed and arranged to improve comfort and productivity. • Only 90N of force is required to engage the parking brake. • The small-diameter steering wheel, with tilt adjustment, provides an optimal driving position for the operator. The superior responsiveness of the steering wheel optimizes maneuverability even in narrow spaces. • The automobile-style suspended pedals provide a more ergonomic, operator-centered experience. |
| EASY TO MAINTAIN | • Designed for easy inspection and servicing. The XF Series’ quick and easy maintenance reduces downtime and operational costs. • The location of the air filter allows for easy reach and replacement when the filter needs to be changed. • The brake drum is installed outside of wheel hub allowing for easy removal and installation of the brake shoes. • The engine oil level dipstick, hydraulic filter, and water separator are easy to reach and allow for easy maintenance. • The gas spring support for the front cover of the radiator auto-opens when the rear cover of the radiator is opened. |
