Steering axles
Continuing a long standing Linde tradition, both, the
conventional “Ackerman” type steering axle of the 388
series and the patented “combi axle” of the 387 series, are
constructed from a single piece of steel. This completely
eliminates welding on the axle bodies and prevents
metallurgic weak spots due to heating. The neoprene
mounting further increases the already unsurpassed durability
of these axles.

“Vibration isolation” system
Neoprene mountings at all “ends”, front axle, rear axle, tilt cylinders, result in the ultimate stress reduction for driver and
machine and is a Linde exclusive. Not only does this system provide significant ergonomic advantages, facilitating superior
driving comfort, it reduces operator fatigue and ensures a high level of productivity. Shielding vital components from high
frequency vibration caused by rough surfaces and bumps due to ramps, curbs, dock boards and pot holes, is another
fundamental advantage of the neoprene mountings.
