Low Lift Pallet Trucks

The loading of lorries or trailers requires the greatest precision and manoeuvrability, speed of operation and absolute robustness to meet the requirements of modern logistics terminals. The EXU-SF 20 low lift pallet truck combines these properties with the advantages of unique flexibility. Whilst the folding platform in conjunction with the very compact build allows manoeuvring in the tightest spaces, the air suspension individually adjustable to the driver, and also the adjustable height side guards provide a high degree of individual support for the operator. The combination of its two drive programs enables maximum driving power at the same time as saving energy. The electrical tiller steering reduces speed when cornering depending on the steering angle. Unrivalled driving characteristics and high stability, thanks to a sprung drive wheel make the EXU-SF the most ergonomically advanced machine in its class.

Frame

• The compact dimensions and flowing lines of the EXU-SF frame was developed for the optimal loading and unloading of lorries.
• The truck also operates easily on ramps and loading docks without getting stuck.
• To ensure manoeuvrability in the tightest spaces, for example when loading and unloading the first pallets, when the truck is parked in a goods lift or has to be transported directly in a lorry for delivery journeys, the driver’s platform and side guard fold up.
• The sprung central drive unit exerts a constant wheel pressure proportional to the load on the forks thus ensuring excellent traction when accelerating and braking.
• Two robust support wheels ensure outstanding lateral stability.
• The EXU-SF has extremely robust forks made from steel sections with cast steel fork tips. The shape of the fork tips has been optimised for picking up all types of pallets easily and without damage.

Steering

• The EXU-SF is fitted as standard with precise and user friendly electrical power steering.
• In the central tiller position any unintentional steering movements are filtered out electronically, in order to achieve precise travel movements.
• The automatic speed reduction when cornering, coupled with the side support wheels offers greater stability and reduces the effects of centrifugal force on the driver and load.

Tiller

• All “SF” trucks are fitted with a stand-on platform for the driver. The dampening element is newly developed and allows to adjust the suspension individually to the weight of the driver.
• The switches are ergonomically designed to be suitable for right or left handed drivers. The push button for the horn and also the lifting and lowering function can be operated with one hand without changing the grip.
• The layout of the controls allows simultaneous operation of the various functions, e.g. lifting and driving.
• The design of the switch elements (micro switches) and tiller PCB is to Enclosure Class IP 65, all plug connectors and also cable harnesses to IP 54, so there is little susceptibility to environmental factors such as rain or dust.
• Extremely robust tiller head in glass fibre reinforced polyurethane.

Driver’s station

• The prevention of muscular problems by good ergonomics and special equipment is a priority at STILL.
• The EXU-SF is fitted as standard with a hydraulically damped driver’s stand on platform.
• This system, unique in warehouse handling equipment, absorbs the impacts and vibrations transmitted from the floor especially over expansion joints and dock levellers.
• The suspension is easy to regulate through a valve and offers the driver the chance to choose his personal comfort setting. A table with guideline figures based on the driver’s weight gives an initial guide here.
• The wide hinged side guards are made of forged steel for maximum protection.
• STILL has further considered the ergonomics of the driver’s station by offering a unique, patented system for adjusting the height of the protective side guards. Now operators of all sizes can find a position that is safe and comfortable for them.
• When not in use, the rider platform and side guards fold up within the contours of the truck which means less potential damage and increased manoeuvrability.
