Product catalog summary
Performance
The 4-Wheel Electric AC Powered lift truck is designed for enhanced performance with features like a rear assist grip with a horn button for better reverse travel comfort and visibility. It includes a touch-pad keyless entry system with password protection, ensuring authorized use. The AC powered system offers extended runtime per battery charge and maintains high performance levels. The AC drive motor provides quicker acceleration and smoother direction changes, while the AC lift motor ensures precise lift/lower control. Programmable performance parameters allow customization for different job applications and operator skill levels. The power keep function maintains productivity even with a low battery charge.
Safety
The lift truck features Toyota's System of Active Stability™ (SAS), which reduces the risk of tipovers by electronically monitoring and controlling operations. SAS includes an active control rear stabilizer and an active mast function controller, enhancing lateral and longitudinal stability. The system automatically engages to stabilize the rear axle and control tilt angles, minimizing accident risks.
Durability
Designed for durability, the lift truck includes a curvilinear bolt-on overhead guard, a structurally rugged mast channel, and a reinforced load backrest extension. It features moisture-resistant electrical connections and thermal protection monitors for increased reliability. Regenerative braking improves efficiency and prolongs brake life, while heavy-duty asbestos-free brakes provide consistent braking power.
Ergonomics
Ergonomic features include an EZ Pedal option for easy travel direction changes, mini-lever or joystick hydraulic controls with adjustable armrests, and a low profile front cowl for enhanced visibility. The foot-activated parking brake and high mount key switch reduce operator strain. The lift truck offers spacious legroom, a non-slip floor mat, and an ultra-comfort suspension seat for operator comfort.
Visibility
Visibility is enhanced with upward visibility through overhead guard bars, improved mast hosing, and a wide-view mast design. The swivel seat option and low profile counterweight improve rearward visibility, while high mount rear combination lights increase visibility in dark environments.
Operability
Operability is improved with travel direction and mast tilt indicators, a low-speed setting feature, and an Operator Presence Sensing System (OPSS) that prevents operation when the operator is not seated properly. The lift truck includes a multifunction digital display for vital operating information and customizable performance parameters.
Serviceability
The AC Drive and Lift Motors require less maintenance due to the absence of brushes, springs, and other wearable parts. The on-demand, full hydrostatic power steering is controlled through the AC hydraulic motor system, reducing maintenance needs.
Specifications and Features
The document outlines the features of Toyota lift trucks, emphasizing ease of maintenance and advanced technology. Key features include a no-tool floorboard for quick access during operator checks, a high-mounted CPU for easy servicing, and an Analyzer Mode for real-time error detection. Battery replacement is simplified with roll-out and slide-out options and a redesigned retaining system.
Digital Display and Diagnostics
The lift trucks are equipped with a multifunction digital display that provides self-diagnostics and eliminates the need for a handheld analyzer. The display also includes a planned maintenance hour meter to notify operators of routine service needs. Brake fluid levels can be quickly checked, and the battery hood is designed for easy access and maintenance.
Product Support and Availability
Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A., Inc. is highlighted as the leading lift truck provider in North America, with a strong dealer network offering comprehensive support. Most Toyota lift trucks sold in North America are manufactured at a zero-landfill facility in Columbus, Indiana, emphasizing the company's commitment to quality and sustainability.
Additional Information
For further details or to locate a dealer, customers are encouraged to contact Toyota Material Handling or visit their website. The document also notes that specifications and features may change without notice and that not all models are available in all locations.

Active Mast Function Controller System Similar in operation to the active control rear stabilizer, the active mast function controller system uses the same patented technology to sense various factors that lead to potential longitudinal instability. When the SAS controller senses potential longitudinal instability, two systems are activated to help reduce the chances of forward or rearward tipovers: forward tilt angle control and rear tilt speed control. Forward Tilt Angle Control will sense load weight and mast height, then automatically override the operator’s manual control and limit forward...
