Clark C45L Specifications
The Clark C45L is a robust, rider-seated forklift built
to handle loads up to 4500 kg (9921 lb) with a 500 mm (20 in) load centre. As
part of Clark's C-Series, it is powered by a 4.3 L, 6-cylinder GM V6 engine
operating on LPG, delivering 58.7 to 66.3 kW (79 to 89 hp) depending on
configuration and model year. The truck is distinguished by its sturdy fully
welded heavy gauge frame, reliable two-speed automatic powershift transmission
with electronic control, and a focus on operator safety and comfort with
features like an auto-engaging electric parking brake with rollback protection
on gradients, hydrostatic power steering eliminating steering kick-back, and
oil-bathed wet disc brakes.
Fitted with pneumatic tyres, it is well-suited for challenging outdoor terrains
and improved surfaces alike, with dual tyre options available for the drive axle
to improve traction and stability when transporting wide loads. With a laden
travel speed of up to 23.4 km/h (14.5 mph) and a gradeability of 33 percent, it
provides powerful and efficient performance in heavy industrial settings.
