Move pallets more easily February 1st 2009 Linde has launched its new
range of electric pedestrian
pallet trucks, with increased
manoeuvrability and
improved ergonomic
features.
The T16, 18 and 20
(representing load capacities
of 1.6,1.8 and 2.0 tonnes
respectively) have high
manoeuvrability in tight
spaces through reduced
length, a new tiller shape
and an innovative creep
speed function.
The creep speed feature
allows the pallet trucks to be
used in confined areas with
the tiller in the upright
position. "Usually when the
tiller is in the upright
position the brake is applied,
so this new feature greatly
improves flexibility and ease
of operation and safety,"
explains Phil Pearson, head
of marketing. "Customers
who have tested the new
trucks tell us it is especially
useful when loading and
unloading road vehicles."
The Linde pallet trucks
also have larger castor
wheels, which are mounted
on shock absorbers to
maintain truck stability
when cornering. The three
wheel configuration with
two adjustable castor
wheels improves traction in
slippery conditions.
