The 4810 Electric Sit-Down Counterbalanced Forklift is designed for heavy-duty material handling, offering robust performance, energy efficiency, and ergonomic features. Ideal for warehouses and manufacturing, it combines a 4,000–6,000 lb load capacity with lithium-ion or lead-acid battery options, reducing emissions and operational costs. Its compact design and advanced safety systems ensure productivity in tight spaces while meeting modern sustainability goals.
What Safety Features Are Integrated into the 4810 Forklift?
The 4810 includes stability control, automatic braking, and load-sensing technology. The anti-slip platform, 360° visibility design, and emergency stop button prevent accidents. OSHA-compliant seatbelts and impact-absorbing structures protect operators during collisions or tip-overs.
Advanced gyroscopic sensors continuously monitor the forklift’s center of gravity, automatically adjusting speed and braking when uneven loads are detected. For example, if a pallet shifts during a 15-foot lift, the system restricts lift height until stability is restored. The dual-camera system provides real-time overhead and rearview feeds directly to the operator’s dashboard, reducing blind spots by 70% compared to traditional models. According to a 2023 warehouse safety study, facilities using the 4810 reported a 45% reduction in collision incidents and 32% fewer OSHA recordables related to material handling.
How Does the 4810 Optimize Warehouse Space Efficiency?
With a tight turning radius (under 6 feet) and compact chassis, the 4810 maneuvers effortlessly in narrow aisles. Its low-profile overhead guard fits standard racking systems, while rear-positioned counterweights prevent obstruction during high-lift operations. Optional camera systems further enhance precision in congested areas.
The 4810’s Tri-Axial Steering System allows operators to switch between front-wheel, crab, and rear-wheel steering modes, enabling precise positioning in aisles as narrow as 8 feet. When combined with its retractable mast design (which reduces overall height by 14 inches during transport), warehouses can increase storage density by up to 18%. A recent implementation at a Midwest e-commerce fulfillment center demonstrated how the 4810 enabled the conversion of 12-foot aisles to 9-foot aisles, creating space for 1,200 additional pallet positions per acre. The table below compares space utilization between the 4810 and conventional forklifts:
| Metric | 4810 Forklift | Standard Forklift |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum Aisle Width | 8 feet | 12 feet |
| Pallet Positions/Acre | 7,500 | 6,300 |
| Turning Cycle Time | 3.2 seconds | 5.1 seconds |
