Truck-mounted forklift simplifies narrow access to farms PALFINGER truck-mounted forklifts to deliver fertilizers, seeds and foodstuffs for agriculture to farms or stores where the access is often narrow. The concept of the powerful tool as well as the service convinced the company and their delivery driver Christophe Boyer. The F3 253 forklift – a powerful tool Christophe Boyer, delivery driver at EUREA DISTRIBUTION has been working with PALFINGER truckmounted forklifts since 2019 and has now received his third F3 253 forklift. He is very satisfied with it: “I deliver our products, fertilizers, seeds and foodstuffs for agriculture to farms and our stores. The PALFINGER truck-mounted forklift is very manoeuvrable and stable, which is very handy for deliveries to farms where access is often narrow”. The F3 253 forklift has enormous lifting power and long reach. It’s lifting capacity at the front of the wheels is amazing 2.5 tons. These qualities simplify Christophe’s work. “The stabilizers and fork extension enable the pick up of a load at the truck’s end by just uncovering one side of it and then putting the load down further away,” says Christophe enthusiastically by safing a lot of time at each delivery. Ease of operation and visibility PALFINGER truck-mounted forklifts

also offer maximum operating comfort thanks to their highly ergonomic controls. They are designed to be easily operable with one hand, ensuring simple, comfortable and fatigue-free operation. The floor controls are ideally positioned at the rear to make loading and unloading quick and safe. Christophe Boyer also appreciates the optimal visibility he has from behind oft the steering wheel. “Thanks to the central position, I have very good visibility. You can see perfectly to the right as well as to the left; the visibility is not hindered by the load. This is very practical, for example when entering farm barns.” Longevity and local service PALFINGER forklifts are also distinguished by their long service life. Their steel structure is protected and finished with PALFINGER cataphoresis and all components are designed to leave no chance for corrosion. In addition to the aesthetic aspect, the housings provide additional

protection for the forklift components. Finally, PALFINGER’s service makes the difference. “We have several service points nearby, which is important. It allows us to have greater responsiveness for our maintenance, repair or consulting needs,” Christophe concludes.
