About the 2T Electric Counterbalance Forklift
The 2T electric counterbalance forklift is one of the most widely hired machines across warehouse and manufacturing operations in the Geelong region. Capable of lifting 2,000kg to a standard mast height of 3.0m — and configurable with options reaching up to 7.0m — it suits the vast majority of indoor pallet-handling tasks. The 80V lead-acid drivetrain delivers a full shift of productive work from a single charge, and the AC dual-drive system provides smooth, responsive travel across concrete and sealed warehouse floors. Zero tailpipe emissions make it the correct choice for any enclosed or ventilation-restricted site where diesel or LPG is not permitted.
The CPD20-AC4-DM platform is a proven design used across high-throughput operations including food manufacturing, cold storage, logistics distribution centres, and general manufacturing. At 3,880kg machine weight it has the stability needed for heavier racking environments, and the 1,960mm turning radius allows it to operate in standard warehouse aisle widths without modification. If your site requires a reliable, emissions-free counterbalance for day-to-day pallet movement, this is a practical, cost-effective hire option.
Key Features
- AC dual-drive motors (2x 8.0kW) — regenerative braking and smooth speed control reduce tyre wear and improve operator control compared to older DC-drive machines
- Wide-view 2-stage mast as standard — maximises forward visibility at height; higher mast options available up to 6,500mm lift for tall racking applications
- 80V lead-acid battery system — proven chemistry for sustained multi-shift use; straightforward on-site charging with standard infrastructure
- Compact turning radius (1,960mm) — fits standard warehouse aisle configurations without requiring wide-aisle racking modifications
