Evo G

Evo G is a modular cab designed for forklift trucks.

The cab measures 1300 by 1060 by 1810 millimetres. Seat, control and safety modules are interchangeable through standardized mechanical interfaces, so the cab can be adapted, maintained and upgraded quickly. An inclined control console, an adjustable seat and reduced noise and vibration limit operator fatigue.

The housing is made of reinforced ABS and PC for impact and abrasion resistance, while an over-moulded soft grip handle and a metal hanger support handling. The lamp runs on an 18V power tool battery platform.
