Choosing an A Series Diesel Forklift: Capacity and Engine
The Hangcha A2 Series diesel forklift covers seven capacities from 1,500 to 3,800 kg at a 500 mm load centre, with a powershift transmission and a choice of engines. Every version in the brochure is diesel, so the decision comes down to capacity, engine and how high you need to lift.
- Engines: a Xinchai C490 is offered across the whole range, an Isuzu at 35.4 kW on 1.5-3 t, and a Mitsubishi S4S (35.3 kW), Xinchai A498 (36.8 kW) or a 44.8 kW three-cylinder engine on 2-3.8 t.
- Gradeability: most versions climb 25% laden. The 44.8 kW engine lifts that to 35% on the 2 t model and 33% on the 2.5 t, while the Isuzu 3 t version manages 15%.
- Lift: 3,000 mm as standard and masts to 7,000 mm, with 6.5 m and 7 m masts needing dual front wheels. On 3-3.8 t, 7.5 m and 8 m masts are available with dual front wheels.
Width runs from 1,080 mm on the 1.5-1.75 t models to 1,225 mm on 3-3.8 t, and turning radius from 1,995 to 2,450 mm. A large LED instrument, LED lights, an electronic accelerator, a neutral safety switch and a reverse buzzer are standard, with a cab, heater, solid tyres and free-lift masts as options. For loads from 4 t, see the A Series diesel forklift 4-5.5 t.
