Hiab Completes Range of Electric Truck-Mounted Forklifts

Hiab, part of Cargotec, launches the MOFFETT E8 NX to complete the eSeries of all-electric truck-mounted forklifts. It is a specialist model for demanding and heavy-duty tasks and can lift loads up to 3,500 kg.

It is the strongest truck-mounted forklift in Hiab’s range and easily masters both rough terrain and difficult-to-reach jobsites – transferring loads quickly and safely through busy yards and building sites.

“The MOFFETT E8 NX truck-mounted forklift offers performance, power and maneuverability. It is ideal for a wide range of uses across different environments and the all-electric drive offers several benefits. Because it is emission-free and near silent, it is perfect for use indoors, in low-emission zones and in places where noise is a concern – like residential areas and when it is late at night. Besides the environmental benefits and extended business opportunities, our eSeries models offer an overall reduced total cost of ownership compared with our conventional truck-mounted forklifts,” said Jann Hansen, vice president, Sales & Product Management, Truck-Mounted Forklifts, Hiab.

The total cost of ownership is lower than the equivalent diesel model as it can be electrically charged and has reduced service costs. It is engineered with fewer moving parts, which reduces service time and spare parts costs. Purchasing a ProCare^™ contract for the MOFFETT unit can help reduce service costs and increase the uptime further.

The MOFFETT E8 NX has a redesigned hood for better visibility and several safety features such as LED lights/beacon, interlocking seat belt and dash controls that are easy to reach from the operator seat. As it is near silent, it is also easier for the operator to hear what is happening around the forklift.

Customers can select from a wide range of E8 models options to tailor the truck-mounted forklift best suited for their needs, and all have access to Hiab’s HiConnect^™ service.
