Taylor Machine Works Cushion Tire Forklifts

When people think of Taylor Machine Works, they often think of their behemoth pneumatic tire forklifts used in lumber, logging, concrete, port operations and more. But Taylor also has a very extensive line-up of cushion tire models perfect for smooth surfaces.

Taylor XHC-600L, 60,000lb. Capacity Cushion Tire Forklift

Taylor’s XHC (pictured above) is perfect for steel, rigging, aluminum, automotive and more. Powered by a Cummins Tier 4 Electronic Diesel engine that drives 175 HP, and lift’s 60,000lbs to a height of 130″ with its 2-stage telescopic mast.

Taylor XHC-250S, 25,000lb. Capacity Cushion Tire Forklift

So maybe you don’t need 60,000lbs. of lifting, Taylor’s XHC-250S provides plenty of muscle with its 25,000lb. capacity, driven by a Cummins 4.5L Tier 4 Diesel kicking out 140 HP!

Taylor Machine Works was built on the premise, “We engineer and build what you need.” This is just as true today as it was in 1927. Taylor Big Red designs, engineers and manufactures American made industrial forklifts and material handling equipment for a number of industries including: Steel, Aluminum, Wood, Lumber, Concrete, Precast, Breakbulk, Intermodal, Ports, Rail and Stevedoring.

Kalmar Electronic Stability Control

To comply with the standards set by the Department of Transport and the National Highway Traffic Safety Association for trucks that operate in approved applications, all new Kalmar Ottawa T2 Terminal Tractors can be equipped with an optional Electronic Stability Control system.

This added safety feature ensures safer load handling and is the first of its kind in the Terminal Tractor industry. When you order a new DOT/EPA compliant Kalmar Ottawa T2 Terminal Tractor with either a 116”, 126” or 136” wheelbase our new Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system can be fitted as an option. 

Enhanced Safety

Your new DOT/EPA compliant diesel truck not only can be fitted with ESC, it also has an Anti-Lock Braking System
(ABS) and a Traction Control System fitted. Making your truck even safer when being operated on public roads.

What is the Difference Between ABS and ESC?

Anti-locking braking systems stop your wheels from locking up when you apply the brakes, this allows for the driver to maintain control without the vehicle skidding. While the ESC system is able to apply the brakes to individual wheels to help maintain stability, particularly when the truck is at risk of jackknifing or spinning. This is done by the system automatically reducing the engine throttle and selectively applying the trucks brakes.
