FORK LIFT TRUCKS
DOOSAN LAUNCHES POWERFUL 9-SERIES FORKLIFTS – COMBINING EURO STAGE V COMPLIANCE WITH HIGH-PERFORMANCE
D
oosan, the leading manufacturer of robust high-performance forklift trucks, has launched a powerful new world-class range of Euro Stage V compliant IC engine counterbalance forklift trucks. The 9-Series offers an unbeatable combination of outstanding fuel efficiency, performance, driver comfort and durability.
Initially introducing nine new advanced models, covering a capacity range from 3.5 – 5.5 tonne, Doosan will go on to release further models in the series over the coming months within the capacity range 2.0 – 3.0 tonne, followed by a steady rollout of robust high capacity models throughout 2021. Businesses across a broad spectrum of industry – from manufacturing, wholesale distribution and food & drink to engineering, building supplies and transport & warehousing – will benefit from the improved capability, power and performance of Doosan’s latest, 9-Series, Euro Stage V compliant counterbalance trucks.
SLEEK DESIGN
The striking, new sleek design combines rugged good looks with enhanced operator comfort, offering spacious leg room with a 50 per cent larger floor plate, concealed tilt cylinder, increased
torso clearance, and an all new ‘full floating’ cabin design with curved front, top and rear glass panels – reducing noise to just 79db(A) and vibration to an absolute minimum.
The 9-Series has been cleverly designed to give the driver even greater all-round visibility. The large rounded glass panels and contoured cowl design provides a clear forward, rear and upper view, and with the option of a FFT wide-view mast, creates even better forward visibility.
COMPLIANCE WITH PERFORMANCE The beating heart of the 9-Series is the advanced G2 Doosan-built diesel engine, which is specially designed for industrial vehicles. It provides high torque at low RPM – effectively delivering improved forklift acceleration, drive and climb performance. Importantly, the inherently clean G2 engine, when fitted with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), is fully compliant with Euro Stage V regulations. In normal operation, regeneration of the DPF takes place automatically during driving – maximising uptime and ensuring uninterrupted all-round performance.

9-Series is the multi torque function, allowing the operator to select the performance most suited to the task. ECO mode minimises fuel consumption, cutting down on unnecessary acceleration; High mode increases power output to match the demands of heavy-duty work; and Standard mode maintains output at levels suited to everyday tasks.
ELECTRONIC POWERTRAIN CONTROL
Doosan’s highly responsive 9-Series boasts the most advanced powertrain system, providing the driver with precise control when handling heavy loads and helping to reduce operator fatigue. The sensitivity of the inching pedal is adjustable, ensuring accuracy when handling heavy and fragile loads such as glass bottles. In addition, the service brake is designed on the principle of a ‘master brake cylinder’, which increases braking capacity by 200 per cent and reduces braking effort by 20 per cent.
Enhancing overall performance and durability of the rugged 9-Series is the new integrated powertrain cooling system that delivers excellent cooling performance similar to the heavy-duty option of the previous model. By streamlining the
