Raymond’s Three-wheel AC Lift Truck Delivers Power, Versatility

Logistics Insight Asia - New Products, 3/4/2008

The Raymond Corporation’s powerful new Model 4400 three-wheel, sit-down electric lift truck is ideal for numerous applications -from heavy-duty dock operations to higher-speed transport for supplying rack systems and moving picked orders. The attachment-ready Model 4400 handles cartons, paper rolls and slipsheets with ease, and has lift capacities from 3,000 lbs. to 4,000 lbs.

Operator comfort on the Model 4400 starts with an easy-access, spacious operator compartment, and a semisuspension seat that can be adjusted for back tilt, operator weight and lumbar support. Also standard are the convenient tilt steering column and natural, intuitive controls. All of the hydraulic functions are color coded, and fingertip hydraulic controls and bidirectional, floor-mounted pedals are available to ensure maximum productivity in high-shuttle operations. The unique open view mast allows operators to clearly see the load for more efficient travel, handling and stacking, and less product damage.

The Model 4400 uses Raymond’s exclusive ACR System for both drive and lift, which delivers faster, smoother operation and increased travel and lift speeds. AC technology also minimizes downtime and reduces cost of ownership because it has fewer wearable parts and requires less maintenance than DC systems. The ACR System also delivers more runtime per battery charge and experiences less reduction in truck performance as the battery discharges.
