MI 80 D Manitou diesel forklift specs & dimensions (2017 - 2026)

Strong machines

Our trucks are equipped with monobloc chassis, and have strengthened masts and axles. The Okamura transmission (small and medium tonnage units) optimizes the efficiency of the various engines. The Powershift transmission in the MI large tonnage units has been developed specifically for heavy duty applications. The machines are fitted as standard with an air filter consisting of a primary filter and a security cartridge and are designed to resist corrosion and vibration. That means increased longevity and filtering capacity. For the toughest applications, a self-cleaning cyclonic pre-filter is available.

High performance engine

Manitou has chosen Yanmar Premium Diesel and Nissan LPG engines for its MI 1.5 to 3.5 ton trucks. They come with: high-level air intake, air filter safety cartridge, diesel fuel/water separator pre-filter.

Engine specifications

MI medium tonnage units are fitted with PSI engines for MI Gas machines, Cummins (turbo) engines for IIIB versions, and Perkins engines for MI-X Diesel versions. These engines provide performance and durability whilst maintaining torque converter power. The engines which equip the MI heavy tonnage range have been chosen and adapted by Manitou to meet the high performance levels expected both in terms of power and environmental constraints, as well as the various standards in force (sound level, pollution etc.).

Visibility & safety

The safety of the driver and the surrounding environment relies first and foremost on visibility. The machine has been designed with this priority in mind: Mast: optimized hose routing for better vision between the uprights, Overhead guard with honeycomb roof ensuring excellent upward visibility, Streamlined back uprights, Operator presence sensor, which secures use by locking the hydraulic movements of the mast and the forward/backward movement of the machine (standard ISO 3691), Panoramic interior rear-view mirror (as standard).

Easy access
