DF Series — Diesel Counterbalance
A turbocharged diesel counterbalance for outdoor duty
The DF30 is Granvolt’s entry diesel counterbalance truck, rated 3,000 kg @ 500 mm for yards, timber handling and brickworks where electric trucks either lack outdoor duty-cycle range or face charging infrastructure that does not exist on site. A turbocharged 36.8 kW diesel engine and torque-converter transmission deliver sustained pulling power on loose or uneven yard surfaces, and a dry-type air filter suits dusty outdoor environments better than a wet filter would.
Hydraulic seat adjustment reduces operator fatigue over long outdoor shifts. Every unit is 100% load-tested before shipment under our ISO 9001:2015 quality system.

Applications
Where the DF30 works
Specified for yards, timber handling and brickworks.
Yards and outdoor lots
Turbocharged 36.8 kW diesel sustains pulling power on loose or uneven yard surfaces across a full outdoor shift.
Timber handling
Torque-converter transmission and a 2-stage mast suit repetitive load-and-stack timber cycles.
Brickworks
Dry-type air filter tolerates dust and debris better than electric drive systems built for clean indoor floors.
