The RF20E handles goods that move often and weigh a lot: pallets of tile adhesive, tiles and bricks at a building materials depot, sacks of cement or animal feed, cases of drinks, crates of parts in a production hall. It loads and unloads from the loading dock, lifts up to 3,000 mm and travels at up to 12 km/h between the hall and the dispatch area.
The difference from the 1,500 kg version cannot be seen from the outside: the length without forks remains 2,200 mm, the width 1,200 mm and the unladen weight 2,600 kg, but the wheelbase increases to 1,580 mm and the rated load goes up by 500 kg. The travel motor is 4,000 W and the hydraulic lift motor is also 4,000 W, 1,000 W more than the 1.5 t model — a difference you feel when lifting full pallets repeatedly, not on an occasional run.
It is the choice for building materials depots, light manufacturing halls and distribution companies that do not need 2.5 tonnes but often hit the limit of a 1.5 t forklift. Being electric, it works indoors all day, with no exhaust and no diesel tank; the system is 60 V, with maintenance-free 12 V batteries. It climbs ramps of up to 10%, and its solid tyres need a hard surface.
As standard it has hydraulic power steering, hydraulic wheel brakes and a handbrake, a one-piece cast steel drive axle and a heavy-plate steering axle, both truck-type, an overhead guard with 990 mm of clearance above the seat and full lighting with indicators, brake lights and an electric horn. The catalogue configuration includes the fork side shift.
