Hiab introduces its Moffet M5 NX forklift
The M5 NX is light enough to be carried on almost any truck or trailer and can lift up to 5,500 pounds.
Hiab, the load handling equipment manufacturer, has introduced its new Moffet M5 NX truck mounted forklift.
The Moffet M5 NX is the ideal machine for medium to heavy-duty tasks, with an efficient power to weight ratio, according to Hiab.
"The M5 NX is the newest addition to our NX range of truck mounted forklifts, featuring improved operator safety and comfort, easier maintenance and enhanced styling, all combined with the great performance and trusted reliability that is expected from a MOFFETT," said Keith Quigley, senior VP for Hiab truck mounted forklifts.
The M5 NX is light enough to be carried on almost any truck or trailer and is capable of lifting up to 5,500 pounds, giving it a highly efficient power to weight ratio. It is available with the option of the Lift AssistTM system, enabling it to safely unload from one side, which gives it supreme flexibility in confined spaces and situations where a normal front-loading forklift simply could not operate.
"With Ground StartTM as standard, the operator can mount and dismount the machine from the ground, and the M5 NX can be dismounted from the truck in less than 60 seconds," said Nigel Brook, business product manager at Hiab. "The bonnet has been redesigned to give extra visibility, and together with the new LED lights and beacon, interlocking seat belt, a larger enclosure, and new pedal positions, these features give maximum safety and comfort to the operator. And the redesigned bonnet and rear doors make access for daily maintenance checks incredibly easy and fast."
A wide range of options and attachments allow the M5 NX to be specifically customized to suit differing needs, including varied lift heights, four-way steering and a choice of forks.
Hiab is owned by Cargotec based in Helsinki, Finland.
