Up Your
UpTime
SCX Series stand-up trucks have been specifically
designed to use fewer parts, require less scheduled
maintenance, provide extended battery life and
deliver more consistent power and performance.
Stay Cool
Built-in thermal sensors help
protect the motor and controller
systems, promoting more reliable
performance. A warning will
flash on the LCD screen to advise
the operator if overheating has
occurred, followed by reduced travel
and lift operations. Information
is automatically locked into the
truck’s service history to assist the
technician and speed servicing.
Reduced Downtime through On-Board Diagnostics
On-board diagnostics and forklift service history are available through the
LCD meter panel for faster troubleshooting and less downtime. Unlike
competitive models, no tablet, laptop or handset tool is needed.
Dependable Drive Units
Dependable performance is achieved
through the synching of our brush-
less AC induction motors with a
simple, yet effective, transmission
design. The result is less complexity,
fewer parts and reduced maintenance.
Simple Efficiency
The use of Hall Effect sensors and
endcoders in the control handle —
plus magnetic reed switches and
inductive proximity switches —
means no extra wiring of heaters
is needed…and reduces the effect
of dirt and debris on the truck’s
operation.
Reliable AC Technology
The SCX Series is powered by our
100% AC motor and hydraulics
systems. With better cooling
capacity and greater reliability
even in humid environments, AC
power delivers more consistent and
higher performance throughout the
shift on a single battery charge for
more uptime and greater productivity.
Our sophisticated CAN-Bus Network
continuously monitors operating systems
providing smooth operation and continuous
diagnostics of all truck components.
Comfort
Zone
Easy Entry
The SCX has the shortest step height
in the industry at just 8.4" —and along
with a wide compartment entry, it is
the ideal design for operators who are
constantly getting on and off the truck
throughout their shifts.
Take a look at the features we offer,
the materials we use and the thought
that went into the SCX Series, and
you’ll see that we’ve addressed
every aspect of operator comfort in
designing this highly efficient truck.
Driver-Friendly Environment
Designed for the operator to lean
back comfortably, the floor is angled
for optimum foot position, and two
large cut-outs accommodate bigger
boot sizes. The truck is designed for
side stance operation and maximum
driver comfort while traveling in either
forward or reverse.
Ergo Design
Shaped with an angled grip for
comfortable all-day operation, our
joystick is ergonomically designed for
comfort and ease-of-use — even with
freezer gloves. The low-effort, sealed
switches help reduce operator fatigue.
A Smooth Ride
Unlike most competitive forklifts, the
platform of the SCX is not bolted to the
frame, but sits on vibration isolators
to absorb shocks.
Plush Surroundings
The operator compartment features
a padded armrest, an extra tall 57"
backrest, super thick floor mat and
optional kneepad.
Perfect Vision
The overhead guard is designed with
wide canopy channels and an angled
crossbar to produce clearer visibility
at higher lift heights.

Gradeability
With quick acceleration, fast travel and lift speeds, plus excellent maneuverability and
precise control, the SCX Series delivers optimal performance and productivity in a wide
range of applications and environments.
Highly Tuned Performance
Specifically designed for the SCX, the AC motors are matched with a controller that’s tuned
to their precise torque and power curves. The result is quick acceleration, higher productivity,
low energy consumption and industry-leading travel and lift speeds.
Smooth Moves
SCX forklifts feature a compact
wheelbase and two individually
controlled AC motors so it can
turn within its own footprint for
unsurpassed maneuverability.
3+1 Performance Modes = Greater Productivity
The SCX Series features adjustable settings to optimize performance based on the application, work environment or
operator experience. Choose from the three factory-set modes (shown below) to easily customize your lift truck. The SCX
also has a manual mode to create unique settings, finely tuned for your operator and operation.
Economy Mode
Extended operating hours achieved with
only slightly reduced performance.
Power Mode
Offers mid-range settings for normal
performance needs.
High-Power Mode
To reach maximum desired performance.
Easy Handling
On-demand power steering with low-input torque, a small
steer tiller wheel and tiller knob provide exceptional
operator control with minimum effort.
Driving Productivity
Large 18" drive tires provide long wear, exceptional
traction and a smooth ride over dock plates, uneven
floors and floor joints.
SCX forklifts deliver
exceptional power and
performance producing
faster cycle times and more
productive operations.

2,400
Low Maintenance
Extended major service intervals of
1,200 and 2,400 hours mean more
uptime with less time, effort and
money expended on maintenance.
Fewer Motors to Maintain
The 100% AC-powered system on
the SCX features brushless drive and
pump motors and a single contactor.
The steering system is electronically
controlled and powered through the
hydraulics, thus eliminating the need
for — and added expense of — a
separate steering motor.
Save Precious Battery Power
Industrial batteries can be a significant part of your operational expenses. The SCX incorporates power saving
features to optimize battery usage so you can get the most out of your investment.
Advanced regerenative technology reclaims power
from four different operations, lowering power
consumption and reducing component wear through
less heat generation — to keep your equipment
operating longer, with less time in the charging bay.
An adjustable auto power-off cuts the electrical system if
the forklift sits idle. Select an allowable idle time between
15 and 60 minutes before the vehicle powers down.
The on-demand power steering system draws battery
power only when required.

Play It
Safe
The SCX Series incorporates the latest
technology to improve confidence and security
in every aspect of our trucks within your operation.
Operator Presence
A standard Operator Presence System
requires that both the brake and operator
presence pedals are depressed to operate.
The SCX offers plenty of room to fit even
large work boots comfortably.
Soft Mode
To promote more confident load handling at higher lift heights, the SCX
features a “Soft Mode” performance setting for greater control and
easier operation. Automatically activated when the mast is raised beyond
the first stage (or at approximately 47" for a two-stage mast), this design
reduces travel, lift, tilt and sideshift speeds; restricts tilt angle; engages tilt
interlock and vertical tilt stop; and reduces regeneration braking.
Auto Park
There’s no need to set a separate brake
because the parking brake is automatically
applied when travel speed is at 0 and no
directional command has been given — or
when power to the truck is removed. A
divider bar between the pedals ensures both
feet must be in the compartment and the
operator is in a safe operating position.
Controlled Rollback
with Ramp Hold
If the travel control is returned to neutral
while traveling on a ramp, the controller
will reduce and stop movement down the
slope. When coming to a stop on a ramp, the
SCX controller will apply motor torque to
maintain position on the slope, until the
automatic parking brakes apply.
Security and Customized Performance
Up to five different, customized performance profile settings can be
quickly and easily entered through the meter panel. PIN codes help
ensure access is only available to authorized operators. Settings
may be matched to the skill level of each driver.
