Company has launched the internal combustion S50CT cushion tire and H50CT pneumatic tire lift trucks, billing each as cost effective and providing the right balance of efficiency, productivity, dependability and durability for a wide variety of moderate-duty applications.

Certain options have been removed, but the lift trucks still retain what the manufacturer notes are legacy features Û durability, toughness and reliability. From sealed electrical connectors to O-ring face seal fittings on the truck chassis, to durable transmissions, the S/H50CT provides users with a no-frills, cost-effective model.

The streamlined, easy-to-operate trucks feature fuel economy and carefully considered ergonomics designed for operator comfort, product engineers contend. The S/H50CT models, with lift capacities of 5,000 lbs., strike the balance between the number of loads moved compared with the amount of fuel used. The lift trucks are engineered for agility as well. Moving around in tight spaces is easy with an electronically controlled Powershift transmission for smooth direction changes. The optional integral sideshifter allows loads to be optimally positioned and the responsive electronically-controlled inching adjustments gives the operator better control of load positioning.
