Pushing massive 8,000-pound loads through a facility shift after shift requires a powertrain built for absolute abuse. Clark engineered this heavy-duty rider pallet truck with a fully enclosed AC drive motor to block out dust, moisture, and debris, making it a bulletproof choice for harsh environments or food processing plants. The undercarriage utilizes extreme-duty bronze bushings at pivot points and pull rods made from solid steel bar stock to guarantee the forks maintain their proper height over the lifespan of the machine. Rather than forcing the operator to conform to the equipment, the top-mounted steer handle clears out the deck to maximize riding space, while the electromagnetic parking brake engages automatically the moment the truck comes to a halt.
