FHS 55 STD
Truck Mounted Forklift
This model delivers a truck-mounted forklift with convincing performance and efficiency. Compact enough to be carried on almost any truck or trailer— and its strength and power combined with its low weight is impressive.
Designed for applications requiring a lifting capacity of up to 5,500 lbs., count on the FHS 55 for handling all loads, ensuring faster and more efficient deliveries.
- This also is available in a reach model — FHS 55 P
Main Frame Channels
The sturdy main frame uses a Standard 4 channel section, which enables the use of larger diameter and wider mast carriage rollers that greatly reduce 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.
