According to Mitsubishi, the single
most important factor in increasing
the productivity of a forklift truck is
‘driveability’. And this is the driving
philosophy behind EDIA EM – the
company’s latest 3 and 4 wheel, 48V, 1.3
to 2.0t electric counterbalance series.

In developing EDIA EM – the
‘Electric Diamond’ – Mitsubishi
designers have aimed to make its
operation highly intuitive and give
the driver a strong sense of
confidence and control.

Driver-friendly features include
FeatherTouch electric steering, which
requires only half the effort of a
conventional system and provides
‘force feedback’ to aid precision.

Comfort is enhanced by the smooth,
quiet steer motor.

Mitsubishi is equipping EDIA with
its IPS2 system, which prevents
movement if the driver is not seated
and gives seat belt and parking brake
reminders.
