E16 Electric Series 1275 Forklift

The perfect balance of stability and manoeuvrability. The E16 is engineered to deliver confident handling in confined warehouse environments, combining excellent traction with an advanced drive axle system that automatically adapts to changing operating conditions. This unit offers the ideal combination of control, agility and productivity across a wide range of material handling applications.

Safety
Stability and control are built into every aspect of the E16, starting with an advanced drive axle system that automatically adjusts the wheelbase to suit the task at hand. When travelling with the mast tilted back, the wheelbase extends to improve stability, while tilting forward shortens the truck for greater manoeuvrability in confined spaces. Linde Traction Control helps maintain grip on slippery surfaces by directing power to the wheel with the most traction, while regenerative braking automatically controls speed on gradients and reduces brake wear. Linde Curve Assist further enhances stability by regulating travel speed through corners, and the Clear View Mast provides excellent visibility of both the load and travel path. An anti-slip entry step also helps improve safety when entering and exiting the truck.

Ergonomics
Operator comfort plays a major role in productivity, and the E16 is designed to support efficient, fatigue-free operation throughout the shift. A wide, adjustable armrest with integrated hydraulic controls allows precise fingertip operation of mast functions, while the twin-pedal layout enables smooth and intuitive direction changes. The spacious cabin, adjustable seat and steering column help create a comfortable driving position, and the compact steering wheel combined with hydraulic steering provides light, responsive handling with minimal effort. Practical storage compartments further improve day-to-day usability.

Handling
Exceptional manoeuvrability and precise load control make the E16 a standout performer in space-constrained environments. The combination of twin front drive motors and Linde Load Control allows operators to lift, tilt and position loads smoothly and accurately, while maintaining excellent travel performance. Full load capacity is available right up to maximum lift heights, supported by impressive residual lifting performance. The patented high-pivot steering axle improves manoeuvrability in confined areas, while the moving front axle enhances stability when travelling with loads. Dual-pedal controls further contribute to responsive and efficient handling during demanding applications.

Service
Long service intervals and premium components help minimise downtime and reduce overall operating costs. European-built drive and lift motors, together with contact-free hydraulic controls, provide dependable long-term performance. Fully sealed aluminium housings help protect critical components from dust and contamination, reducing maintenance requirements and cleaning time. Preventative servicing is only required every 1,000 operating hours, while hydraulic oil change intervals extend to 3,000 hours, helping keep the E16 productive for longer.
