DF Series — Diesel Counterbalance
Heavy-duty axles for port and steel-mill cycles
The DF50 is the larger DF-line truck, rated 5,000 kg @ 600 mm for ports, steel mills and heavy industry where pallet and coil weights exceed what an electric counterbalance truck can carry. A turbocharged intercooled diesel engine (60 kW) and heavy-duty axles are built for continuous outdoor cycles, and a dual-pump hydraulic system keeps lift and tilt response steady under the heaviest rated loads.
A 3-stage mast option and a rearview camera option are available for sites with restricted visibility or taller racking. Every unit is 100% load-tested before shipment under our ISO 9001:2015 quality system.

Applications
Where the DF50 works
Specified for ports, steel mills and heavy industry.
Ports
Heavy-duty axles and a 5,000 kg @ 600 mm rating handle container and bulk cargo weights at port gates.
Steel mills
Dual-pump hydraulics keep lift and tilt response steady under sustained heavy-load cycles.
Heavy industry
The 3-stage mast option reaches taller racking without changing the base machine.
