Hoist Liftruck Secures Multi-Truck Order in Turkey

Hoist Liftruck, Bedford Park, Ill., has secured a multi-truck order in Turkey that includes the company’s pneumatic P-Series and container handler lines.

A logistics company involved in a variety of industries purchased a P-Series P360 (36,000 pounds) and two P720 (72,000 pounds) for steel and energy applications. The company also purchased an ECH-6 empty container handler.

The advanced modular design on the Hoist ECH and LCH series allows for containerized shipping and reduced setup time that can save a customer as much as 25 percent on shipping and setup costs. The modular design also provides efficient serviceability, with bolt‐on assemblies for easy parts replacement.

Opposite of traditional designs, the unique mast features a rigid inner mast and telescoping outer, which reduces torsional stresses and increases durability. The wide‐view mast with nested cylinders, coupled with a high‐position cab, and angled overhead glass, provides the operator with superior visibility.

Other standard features include Tier III diesel engine; automatic transmission; load sense hydraulic system; planetary drive axle; stabilizing system preventing lateral movement; side‐post attachment with two ISO rear twistlocks that extend/retract to handle containers up to 53 feet; interlock safety system to insure proper locking and twistlock engagement indicator lights; and RemoteTech vehicle management system.

Hoist Liftruck has also announced that engineering is underway for its reachstacker series to complement its container handlers and pneumatic product lines.
