EP45 Caterpillar electric forklift specs & dimensions (2007 - 2014)

Powerful general workhorses for warehouse use and where engine powered trucks are not allowed

This range is particularly suited to applications with low overhead clearances such as in containers, delivery vehicles, drive-in racking and so on.

4.0-4.9 tonnes truck characteristics

Powerful AC traction motor sealed against dust and water splashes, ideal for adverse conditions. Optimum torque for excellent acceleration, traction, speed and braking. Ergonomically designed fingertip hydraulic controls, reducing operator fatigue. Automatic speed reduction increases stability of the truck when cornering with a load. Automatically applied park brake and anti roll back function ensure that the truck is always parked safely, even on a ramp. Traction Control and strong regenerative braking speeds up working cycles, extends battery life and reduces brake wear.

Clear views of fork tips for accurate handling

The standard overhead guard (OHG) and masts are designed for clear views of fork tips, racking and loads. While the optional ‘Hi-Viz’ OHG features a top front section made of clear poly carbonate with a glass layer (that prevents scratches and sun discoloration) and a steel section towards the rear of the OHG. The benefits are clear, unobstructed views of the fork tips and protection from small falling objects and wet weather.

Durable, Adaptable and Built to Perform

Cat Lift Trucks offers one of the most dependable and complete electric lift truck ranges in the industry. Whatever your shift pattern, application type or usage we have the right materials handling solution for your business.

Flexible, Programmable Performance

Preset operating modes along with full programming capability allows each truck to be set-up for optimum performance and efficiency in almost any application.

1.0-1.5 tonnes: Light Duty Economy

These compact trucks are ideally suited to lighter duty warehouse tasks with intermittent shift patterns. They’re easy to operate by the inexperienced or occasional operator and are very economical to use. Typical energy consumption is a low 4.75 kWh/h for its designated applications. As with our bigger models, this range also features five pre-set operating modes, individually programmable performance, built-in system protection and fault memory. This helps keep your operator productive and also minimises truck maintenance downtime. We understand the importance of a comfortable and safe operator compartment. An adjustable, full suspension seat, tiltable steering wheel and spacious footwell accommodate operators of all sizes in comfort, even on such a compact truck. For safety reasons, the Presence Detection System (PDS) prevents accidental operation while the driver is not seated. Rounded panel corners and low step height make on/off access easy from both sides, which is especially useful when working in confined areas and narrow aisles.

Attractive styling, functional design

With ergonomics and safety in mind, the operator’s compartment features a fully adjustable fingertip control armrest, tiltable steering column, automotive pedal layout and an adjustable suspension seat.

2.0-3.5 tonnes truck characteristics

Clean, comfortable operator’s compartment with ergonomic and functional controls. Tiltable steering column. Fingertip hydraulic controls mounted on an adjustable armrest, for easy comfortable use. Easy service access to all components. Tough, rigid, high visibility masts ensure load stability at height. Comprehensive instrument panel keeps operators informed. MicroCommand® controller with fault warning, fault memory, run time and self diagnostics. Programmable performance parameters and 5 pre-set operating modes.

3-Wheel Agility

3-wheel models (P) are agile and highly maneuverable with very tight turning circles, making them perfectly matched for intensive short shuttle work and activities in confined areas.

Flexible cabin packages

Fitted to the Hi-Viz overhead guard, cabin package options include front and rear panels and side doors to partially, or fully enclose the compartment, for comfortable operation in extreme conditions. Options also include windscreen wipers, heater, 12V connector, sun visor, tilt cylinder covers and an interior light.
