Toyota 42-7FD40 Specifications

Basic Information

The Toyota 42-7FD40 is a diesel-powered forklift that delivers exceptional power, durability, and safety for heavy-duty operations. Its core strength lies in the robust Toyota 14Z diesel engine, a six-cylinder powerplant providing substantial torque and reliability for continuous use. The machine is equipped with Toyota's System of Active Stability (SAS), a hallmark of the brand that continuously monitors and automatically enhances vehicle stability during operation, significantly reducing the risk of tip-overs.

Operator comfort and safety are further prioritized through features like the Operator Presence Sensing (OPS) system, the Operator Restraint System (ORS) seat, full hydraulic power steering, and a memory tilt steering column. With competitive travel and lift speeds for its class, the 42-7FD40 is designed to maximize productivity in challenging environments.

This model is equipped with a standard 2-stage, high-visibility mast as part of its base configuration. It rolls on heavy-duty pneumatic tires, offering excellent traction, flotation, and shock absorption for uneven terrain and outdoor surfaces. The truck's fundamental design incorporates Toyota's SAS, contributing actively to its operational stability.

The distance from the centre of the drive axle to the fork face is 555 mm (21.9 in), supported by a wheelbase of 2,000 mm (78.7 in). The total truck weight in working order is 6,350 kg (14,000 lb). When fully laden, the axle load distribution places 9,600 kg (21,165 lb) on the front axle and 1,250 kg (2,756 lb) on the rear axle. In an unladen state, the front axle load 2,710 kg (5,975 lb), and the rear axle load 3,640 kg (8,025 lb).

Engine Specs

The Toyota 42-7FD40 is powered by the Toyota 14Z diesel engine, a robust and reliable powerplant specifically designed for heavy-duty industrial operation. It is a six-cylinder engine with a total displacement of 5,204 cc (317.6 cu in). According to ISO 1585 standards, this engine produces a rated power of 56 kW (75.1 hp), achieved at a governed rated speed of 2,100 rpm.

The engine features a pressure-fed lubrication system with a gear-type oil pump and full-flow oil filter, ensuring all moving components are adequately lubricated. Cooling is managed by a liquid-cooled system with a large-capacity radiator, water pump, and thermostat, designed to maintain optimal operating temperatures even under continuous, demanding use in high-temperature environments.

Drive Train

Transmission: It is fitted with a heavy-duty Powershift transmission, which facilitates smooth direction changes without the need for clutching. This transmission operates with a single forward and a single reverse gear.

Travel Speed: The forklift achieves a laden travel speed of 23.5 km/h (14.6 mph) and an unladen travel speed of 24 km/h (14.9 mph).

Axles: The drive axle is located at the front, featuring a durable hypoid gear final drive with a full-floating axle shaft design. The rear steer axle is of a robust, heavy-duty construction with a centrally mounted pivot for stability.

Brakes: The service brake system is hydraulic and operates on the front drive wheels via self-adjusting brake shoes. A mechanically actuated, independent parking brake is also provided for secure parking on inclines.

Electrical System

The electrical system is engineered to reliably support the engine, safety features, and lighting. It operates on a standard 12-volt architecture, including a 12-volt, 70-amp alternator and a 12-volt, 100-amp-hour heavy-duty battery. The system powers the starter motor with pre-heat system for diesel operation, and all essential lighting components such as headlights, tail lights, turn indicators, and work lights for safe operation in low-light conditions. The machine also integrates the Operator Presence Sensing system within its electrical safety architecture.

Wheels and Tires

The chassis provides a rigid and durable foundation, constructed from heavy-gauge steel plate with reinforced cross-members to support all major components under heavy load stress.

Wheels and Tires: The 42-7FD40 is fitted with heavy-duty pneumatic tires.
Front: 300-15-18PR (I)
Rear: 7.00-12-12PR (I)

Wheel Tread:
Front: 1,150 mm (45.3 in)
Rear: 1,090 mm (42.9 in)

Drive Configuration: The vehicle utilizes a 2-wheel drive configuration, with the two front wheels serving as the driven wheels.

Steering: The steering system on the Toyota 42-7FD40 is a full hydraulic power steering system. This provides the operator with exceptionally smooth and effortless control, which is particularly beneficial during low-speed maneuvering and in confined spaces with heavy loads. The system is hydrostatic, meaning there is no mechanical linkage between the steering wheel and the rear steer axle. The steering column is also equipped with a memory tilt function, allowing operators to adjust the steering wheel to their preferred position and easily return to it, enhancing comfort and productivity.

Hydraulic System

The hydraulic system is responsible for powering the lifting, tilting, and any auxiliary functions. It utilizes a reliable gear-type pump to ensure high efficiency and pressure. The system operates at a pressure of 181 bar (2,625 psi) for powering attachments.

The main hydraulic pump has a rated flow of 98 l/min (25.9 gal/min), ensuring responsive lift and tilt speeds for efficient handling of heavy loads. The mast tilts forward by 6 degrees and backward by 12 degrees, facilitating precise load engagement and secure transport.

Service Refill Capacities

The engine crankcase holds 14.0 l (14.8 qt) of oil, including the filter. The cooling system capacity is 16.0 l (16.9 qt). The hydraulic tank has a capacity of 60 l (15.9 gal). The transmission incorporates its own oil supply of 23 l (24.3 qt). The drive axle contains 5.6 l (5.9 qt) of lubricant.

Mast Data

The standard mast configuration is a 2-stage, high-visibility design with heavy-duty channels.
