These types of machinery are an efficient, cost effective solution for numerous haulage, shipping, and distribution businesses, even those types with low throughput levels.
The SL-Series is a lot different from other side-loaders because of its ability to drive in four directions. This multi-directional steering is available with the cab on the left or on the right. This hydrostatic, all-wheel drive forklift could benefit companies in numerous ways, one of which is to enable facilities to have aisles which are narrower. It also allows the capability to block or bilk stack by driving forward.
