Truck-Mounted Forklifts

Hiab, part of Cargotec, has received a significant order for MOFFETT truck-mounted forklifts with HiConnect from an existing U.S. customer.

A dealer customer also made a large order for PRINCETON truck-mounted forklifts.

• The orders were booked in Cargotec’s Q1 2023 order intake and will be delivered throughout the year.

“We are very happy that we continue our valued relationship with two companies that have again put their trust in our truck mounted forklifts. The MOFFETT and PRINCETON can both be unmounted from a truck in less than a minute to deliver safe, reliable performance on even challenging terrain,” said Jann Hansen, vice president, sales and management, truck-mounted forklifts, Hiab.

The MOFFETT truck-mounted forklifts will be supplied to a long-standing Hiab customer and used to deliver building materials throughout the U.S.

There is a growing interest in the PRINCETON brand that is sold by a US-wide network of premier material handling equipment distributors.

The PRINCETON units in the order will be supplied to an established dealer that will sell them to its own customers.

The MOFFETT truck-mounted forklift model ordered is the M8 55.3P NX with a moving mast and a lifting capacity of 5,500 lbs.

The MOFFETT M8 55.3P NX model delivered has a pantograph option so it can reach and pick up a load on the far side of a trailer. While it is very powerful, it is still compact enough to be carried on a wide variety of truck and trailer classes.
