Pneumatic tire forklifts for heavy-duty lifting

UniCarriers PD6 Series Pneumatic Tire Forklifts
April 24, 2019

UniCarriers Americas (UCA), Marengo, Ill., launched its new PD6 Series (IC) Pneumatic Tire Forklifts, replacing the outgoing G06 Series.

This new series handles a 13,000- to 22,000-pound capacity range, and includes the addition of 6T low-power and high-power offerings and a 7T low-power model. Under the hood is a Kubota v3800 Tier 4/CARB-compliant diesel engine with improved fuel consumption.

A large LCD panel replaces the G06’s mechanical screen, improving operator feedback. New standard features include wet disc brakes, a dual element air cleaner and a rear-view mirror. All models feature a hydraulic oil cooler for when using big attachments or employing heavy-duty applications.

In addition, the PD6 Series comes equipped with a seat-actuated operator presence system with seatbelt and parking brake warnings and a 5-piece overhead guard that cuts replacement time by 75%. All standard features enhance operator safety and productivity, ensuring maximum forklift uptime.  

New optional features include:

  • 5-spool valve for increased functionality (Not available on FD100-4 model).
  • Increased tire selection.
  • LED safety line light.
  • High-capacity AC alternator 12V x 115 amp for increased uptime.
  • LED lights for energy efficiency.
  • Front and rear access-assisted handgrip.
  • Pre-cleaner.
