Need greater flexibility from your pallet handling equipment? The L14–L16 AS/AP combines compact dimensions, a tight turning radius and responsive electric steering to help operators move efficiently through narrow aisles and busy storage areas. Available with or without an operator platform, it can be configured to suit different warehouse applications, from high-density racking to longer-distance transport. Powered by a 2.3kW AC motor, it can handle loads of up to 1.6 tonnes, while adjustable straddle legs accommodate a variety of pallet and load carrier sizes. A low-profile chassis with rounded edges also helps enhance operator safety during everyday operation.
Safety
Maintaining control becomes even more important in fast-paced warehouse operations, and the L14–L16 AS/AP incorporates several features to help operators work confidently. All wheels are positioned within the truck's chassis to reduce the risk of foot injuries, while the smooth body design eliminates exposed edges and corners. The load-sensitive electromagnetic braking system responds immediately when the operator steps off the platform, presses the emergency stop or releases the travel controls. Automatic cornering speed reduction further enhances stability when manoeuvring with loads.
Ergonomics
Efficient pallet handling often relies on keeping controls simple and intuitive, which is why the L14–L16 AS/AP allows all travel and lift functions to be operated with either hand without releasing the tiller. Electric steering can be adjusted to suit individual preferences, helping reduce effort during long shifts while maintaining precise control. On platform-equipped models, a rubber-mounted suspended platform helps absorb vibration and reduce operator fatigue throughout the day.
Handling
Handling a variety of pallet types is made easier through a combination of flexible design and precise load control. ISO-standard forks and adjustable straddle legs allow the truck to work with different pallet and load carrier sizes, while Linde OptiLift® technology delivers smooth, accurate lifting and lowering movements for greater control during stacking. A powerful 2.3kW AC drive motor enables travel speeds of up to 10km/h on platform models, helping operators transport and store loads of up to 1.6 tonnes efficiently.
Service
Reliable day-to-day performance starts with a maintenance-friendly design, and the L14–L16 AS/AP makes servicing straightforward through easy access to key components. The maintenance-free 2.3kW AC motor helps minimise routine servicing requirements, while CAN bus diagnostics give technicians quick access to truck data for fault finding and system checks. Key components are also positioned for easy access, helping speed up maintenance and repairs when required.
