Diesel Forklift Trucks DX50 Series 6.0ton - 8.0ton
Durable Wet Disc Brakes to withstand Severe Conditions
The wet disc brake is sealed with oil to block dust penetration, providing durable, water resistant and fade resistant characteristics. Smooth, stable braking provides “Productivity” and “Reliability” in demanding operation.
A Cooling System to achieve Increased Braking Stability
The oil in the wet disc brake system is circulated through the brake oil cooler. This mechanism ensures stable braking under a heavy work load and prevents deterioration of the braking force due to raised oil temperatures.
- Steady breaking is always achieved.
- Overheating of the brakes is prevented.
- Downtime and maintenance costs are reduced.
First-class Productivity is achieved
First-class Cycle Time
The diesel models adopt a compact 3.3-liter engine with the advanced CLSS hydraulic system to achieve high productivity and a first class cycle time. The gasoline engine model also achieves a superior cycle.
*Komatsu tested data, Comparison with FD70-8 model. The results may vary depending on conditions.
Fully Hydrostatic Power Steering for Superb Maneuver
The FHPS (Fully Hydrostatic Power Steering) mechanism facilitates fully stationary steering as well as switchback operations using the small diameter steering wheel. The system has a superior response capability so that the operator can pick up or place cargo flexibly even in a narrow space. In addition, steering knob synchronizer function is available as an option.
The 8.0 ton model offers a significant size reduction
TThe 8.0 model features a shorter wheelbase and swift mobility while maintaining the power and speed capable of achieving high productivity. The DX50 8.0 ton model is an ideal choice for confined spaces.
Excellent Durability for Demanding Work
Rugged Design with High Rigidity
The high rigidity mast, frame, front and rear axles ensure outstanding reliability even when performing heavy-duty work.[Mast] A heavy mast rail profile for excellent rigidity.
[Frame] The successful high rigidity structure of previous models is adopted.
[Front axle] The proven reliable design of previous models is adopted.
[Rear axle] The durability of the power steering cylinders is improved.
Improved Reliabilities for the Hydraulic and Electrical Systems
The main hydraulic pipe connectors are face-sealed using O-rings. Waterproof connectors are provided to the main harnesses and the system controller in order to provide higher resistance to water and dust.Hydraulic and electrical piping systems
are in separate configurations to
improve the reliability and servicing.
Engine Protection for Maintaining the Engine in Top Condition
Trouble diagnosis: Engine malfunctions are automatically detected and an alarm lamp blinks.
Overheating prevention: The engine output and RPMs are reduced when the coolant temperature is high.
Automatic engine warm-up: The RPMs are accelerated to warm up the engine at low temperatures.
Automatic air pre-heating: The engine is automatically pre-heated when starting it at low temperatures.
