Once again, Toyota innovation and engineering come together to set a new standard in the lift truck industry. The 8-Series offers major advancements that enhance every aspect of lift truck operation. The result: a safer workplace and more productive lift truck operators. The 8-Series is our most durable lift truck yet—thanks to a host of heavy-duty improvements. Safety was equally important in the development of the 8-Series, which features our exclusive System of Active Stability™ (SAS). SAS electronically monitors and controls the lift truck’s operations to help reduce the risk of...

In a lift truck, tougher is always better. No matter how tough the job gets, the 8-Series is built to take it. Every 8-Series lift truck is built using Toyota’s world-renowned production system—which delivers the kind of quality, durability and reliability the industry has come to expect from the leader in lift truck technology. Consider the thick fully-stamped steel side panels that help withstand the harshest environments. The moisture-resistant electrical connectors that are designed to improve durability in high-moisture environments. And a variety of other innovative features that help...

Efcient cooling system provides optimal airow through the radiator and counterweight thereby reducing the likelihood of overheating and extending the overall life of critical engine components. Hydraulic accumulator acts as a load shock absorber. This option improves front-end durability by cushioning potentially damaging shock loading on critical mast, carriage and attachment components. Tilt cylinder protection boots are optional and reduce hydraulic leaks by limiting cylinder rod scouring and seal damage caused by dirt accumulation. Structurally rugged mast channel design provides...

Safety first. Productivity, a very close second. Still leading the industry in safety technology, no other lift truck brand offers a system comparable to Toyota’s System of Active Stability™ (SAS). According to OSHA, lift truck accidents are the second-leading cause of fatalities in the private sector, with highway vehicles being the rst. With well over 250,000 SAS-equipped Toyota lift trucks in operation in the U.S. and Toyota’s proven record of lift truck safety, you can feel condent knowing that your operators are utilizing equipment that sets the industry standard in safety. Toyota’s...

Active Mast Function Controller System Similar in operation to the active rear stabilizer control, 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...

Innovations in layout, steering control and load-handling assistance—and a variety of other 8-Series features—have been designed with the operator’s productivity in mind. From the 4Y-ECS engine, which is capable of meeting and exceeding the performance demands of tough workplace environments, to the full-hydrostatic power steering engineered for smoother and more precise handling with less operator fatigue, the 8-Series takes lift truck productivity to a whole new level. Automatic idle-up system1 allows feathering of the hydraulic lift lever under the loaded condition for fast, efcient,...

One-way automatic fork leveling consistently levels the forks parallel to the ground, improving operating efciency and productivity while reducing product damage. Starting from a back tilt position, the one-way automatic fork leveling feature positions the forks horizontally to the oor with the simple push of a button on the tilt lever, allowing safer and easier load handling. Two-way automatic fork leveling on the mini-lever and joystick control options allow the operator to level the forks from both the back tilt and forward tilt positions.

InNovation at your fingertips. The 8-Series’ innovative ergonomic features were designed to help make operators more comfortable and, as a result, more productive. These and other features Curvilinear overhead guard legs provide a wider opening for operator entry/exit. make the 8-Series Toyota’s most ergonomically advanced lift truck ever. Electric shift lever offers easily accessible ngertip control for fast and easy directional changes. Automotive style light switch and turn signal levers are integrated into the slim prole steer column for easy accessibility and simple operation....

High mount key switch and parking brake release lever have been strategically placed to minimize the need for an operator to lean forward in the seat. Cowl-mounted hydraulic levers are ergonomically situated for improved operator comfort and unobstructed entry/exit from the right side of the truck. Slim-prole steer column, which features a small 11.8-inch-diameter steering wheel and optional steer assist knob, reduces operator arm and shoulder strain. The small diameter wheel also provides greater legroom and wider service access and simplies operator entry/exit. Optional rear assist grip...

See what you’ve been missing. A variety of features provides optimal visibility, which translates into better performance and productivity. Dash-mounted displays and the low prole cowl with sloped dashboard provide an unobstructed view of the fork tips in any position. Strategic placement of the overhead guard bars provides ideal visibility when positioning forks and handling loads high on racking. And tapered rear overhead guard legs and low prole LPG tank placement give operators the view they require when driving in reverse. Upward Visibility Overhead guard bars configured front to back...
