Z 70 KN Carer electric forklift specs & dimensions (2001 - 2012)

Z Series Design Philosophy

The new Z series has been conceived keeping in mind all the principles of CARER’s design philosophy, from costs reduction to Flexible Power Design: all trucks are flexible to a wide variety of applications, and designed to be customized. All categories of high capacity are designed to be compact and space-saving. These characteristics make the Z series ideal in any work situation; they can perform even the most difficult tasks with ease.

Steering axle

Z series utilize a tough rear axle that allows obtaining a very high steering angle. The hydraulic jack is installed in a protected position and the kinematic motions are equipped with spherical joints.

Power steering

The hydro-drive optimizes energy consumption and enhances dynamic performances perfectly combining the lightness of the steering wheel with the precision of the guide. A special engine operate the hydro-drive.

Braking system

The “oil-bath” braking system is extremely effective and long lasting. Routine maintenance required for the brake assembly is reduced to a regular oil change. The electronic braking energy regeneration occurs by reversing the direction of travel, released and lightly pressing the brake pedal.

Tyres

The Z60KN, Z65KN, Z70KN and Z80KN model uses super-elastic tyres but it can also uses cushion type tyres.

Electronics

All truck functions are managed by sophisticated microprocessor-controlled high frequency MOS electronics and regenerative braking. The chopper is protected against rainwater infiltration and is cooled by apposite fans. Installation behind the driver’s seat facilitates accessibility and maintenance. LED-type self-diagnosis system.

Drive

The front axle is made up of a differential unit that also includes an “oil bath” type braking unit. Drive reduction occurs inside the wheel hub by way of an epicycloidal mechanism.

Masts

The lift units allow excellent visibility. The mast profiles are cold treated to provide optimum resistance to bending and twisting. The lift cylinders are external to the profiles. The integrated side shift (optional) does not reduce the rated capacity of the truck.

Comfort

Driving position is large and offers maximum visibility in every direction. The layout of controls and instruments on board follow the ergonomic dimensioning. The best driving position is easily achieved by adjusting the tilt angle and depth of the steering wheel column and acting on the levers which adjust the wide seat. The large cushioned seat is adjustable in every direction and even under the weight of the operator. The armrests are reclining. A large handle with two wide steps provides access to the driver’s seat.
