Is Your Problem Long Loads?
Is Space at a Premium?
Would your business benefit from being able to handle those long loads and reduce the aisle widths?
If the answer is yes to these questions then a four-way or multi-directional forklift truck is what you should be looking at.
At Lektro Mechanical Handling Ltd we are able to offer the Hubtex range of multi-directional forklift trucks designed to handle long loads in a warehouse or yard conditions.
With the standard width forklift truck carriage or an extra wide carriage to handle very long loads the Hubtex Series 3050 is the ideal forklift truck for handling products in external yard areas.
When handling from lorry to cantilever racking or on to the floor or block stacks, by reaching out with the forks this forklift truck can do all of the jobs of a standard forklift truck but in narrower aisles with the long load.
The Hubtex Series 3050 is also a very capable inside use forklift truck. With full free lift masts and the option of rail guidance moving into an internal or covered storage area can be easy and quick.
The long loads can be precisely positioned on the racks and with the minimum of fuss and the minimum of space. With less damage to the goods and increased health and safety there are many good reasons for using four-way side loaders.
New Electric Multi-Directional Side Loaders
Stock is money and the cost of the storage space needed only adds to that cost. So it is important to utilise all of the available space, but for longer loads it takes a specialised forklift truck to make the most of what is there.
The Hubtex electric multi-directional side loader is just such a forklift truck. For handling long and unusually shaped loads in a warehouse environment the ability to move that load side ways opens up a whole range of possibilities and reduces down the space need to carry them out.
Long and deep loads such as board materials suddenly become easier to handle and store, and when this multi-directional side loader forklift truck is fitted with resilient tyres loading and unloading the delivery lorries outside as well as working in the warehouse is a real possibility.
With a deep load bed dimension the loads can be carried on the load legs to reduce damage to the materials and increase safety. For less sturdy materials a wider forklift carriage and additional load forks can keep them straighter while being handled.
Opting for a standing operator compartment rather than the seated version can reduce the overall width of the multi-directional side loader forklift truck. Also where the operator is constantly on and off the truck it can be more convenient and less tiring.
With all of the Hubtex four-way and multi directional forklifts the safety of the operator and other workers is paramount. The stand up compartment uses a hip level safety bar to ensure that the operator remains in the cab area while the truck is in motion, glass or mesh screens can be fitted to the cab to stop the operator reaching out, amber flashing beacons and movement alarms are also available to warn those around the work area.
Specialist options
There are as many different handling problems in the world today as there are materials to handle. The Hubtex electric multi-directional side loader forklift truck is an adaptable base on which to build the ideal handling tool.
When holding stock, particularly for todays manufacturing operations it is often necessary to pick a smaller quantity from a storage location. The ability for the operator to rise with the forks and select the quantity required ‘safely’ and quickly has led to a busy design department within Hubtex.

With many nominations and awards for innovation and safety, a track record of being able to deliver, and a willing and helpful workforce Hubtex have a great deal to offer in more ways than one.
So for the ideal forklift truck to suit your long load needs, whatever they may be, and above all for quality of both the product and the after sales support call Lektro Mechanical Handling and talk to us about Hubtex and what we can do for you.
