Cat Lift Trucks has improved its already popular 2.0 to 3.5-tonne diesel counterbalance forklifts with the introduction of an advanced Stage V engine. Now designated as the DP20-35N3 range, these trucks benefit from the latest electronically controlled engine and exhaust gas technology. The results include high performance and fuel economy, as well as low emissions that comply fully with stringent EU regulations.

Reduced total cost of ownership
The new engine’s built-in warning system and easy maintenance procedures add to the protection features and rugged, durable construction that make Cat diesel and LPG trucks so economical to own. Both the DP20-35N3 diesels and the closely related GP15-35(C)N LPG range benefit from long-life components, long service intervals and a highly robust chassis. They are also constructed with a full belly guard which protects the engine compartment from dust, dirt, and water.

A clear LCD display on all these diesel and LPG models provides extensive information on their operation and maintenance state, encourages effective servicing and helps prevent unplanned downtime. On the diesel versions, its indications include soot level.

Increased productivity and comfort
Whether powered by the new Stage V diesel engine or the current LPG unit, with its efficient electronic management system and three-way catalytic converter, the trucks deliver consistently high productivity. Outstanding traction on sloping or slippery surfaces combines with easy operation and low noise levels to give a satisfying and comfortable driving experience. For extra comfort, all models now feature a deluxe Grammer seat, while a deluxe cabin has been added to the list of options.

There are four diesel and seven LPG models to choose from, offering a variety of load capacities, frame types, mast designs and additional options. Based on these, the perfect configuration can be specified for each industrial application.
