FAQ

Why a 3-wheel forklift?
The single rear steer wheel gives a much tighter turning radius than a 4-wheel truck, so it maneuvers easily in narrow aisles and trailers.

Indoor or outdoor?
It produces no exhaust, so it is quiet and clean for enclosed spaces. Dual drive motors and solid pneumatic tires also let it handle paved outdoor areas such as docks and lots.

Does it come with a battery and charger?
Yes. It ships with the 48V lithium battery and a 480V 3-phase fast charger (about 2 hours to full charge). Contact us before ordering if your facility needs a different input voltage.

How is it delivered?
Units ship by freight truck from EKKO. Inspect the forklift on arrival and note any damage on the delivery receipt with photos before signing.
