FHC 55 STD
FHC 55 STD—Center Seat Series
Truck Mounted Forklift
This model delivers convincing performance and efficiency as a truck-mounted forklift. It is compact enough to be carried on almost any truck or trailer, and its strength and power, combined with its low weight, are impressive.
Designed for applications requiring a lifting capacity of up to 5,500 lbs., count on the FHC 55 for handling all loads, ensuring faster and more efficient deliveries.
- This also is available in a reach and side-seat model — FHC 55 P and FHS 55 STD.
Main Frame Channels
The sturdy main frame uses a Standard 4-in. channel section and roller bearings, which enables the use of larger diameter and wider mast carriage rollers, greatly reducing loading and wear.
Carriage Cylinders
Carriage cylinders are recessed below the mast carriage, providing a lower center of gravity for the machine and added protection from damage caused by falling debris.
