Toyota 42-7FGF18 Specifications

Basic Information

The Toyota 42-7FGF18 is a 1.75-tonne capacity, LPG-powered, seated rider forklift, celebrated for its integration of advanced safety systems and efficient, clean-burning powertrain. As part of Toyota's 7-Series, this model is distinguished by the standard inclusion of the System of Active Stability (SAS), which significantly enhances operator confidence and truck stability during complex maneuvers.

Powered by the reliable Toyota 4Y LPG engine, it delivers responsive performance for medium-duty material handling tasks in warehouses, distribution centers, and industrial environments where indoor air quality is a concern. Its compact design and efficient hydraulic system contribute to productive work cycles, while operator-centric features like the Operator Presence Sensing system and a memory tilt steering column reduce fatigue and promote safe operation.

The Toyota 42-7FGF18 is a counterbalanced forklift truck designed for versatility and safety. It operates on LPG and is controlled by a seated operator. Its rated load capacity is 1750 kg (3858 lb) at a 500 mm (19.7 in) load centre. The distance from the drive axle centre to the fork face measures 410 mm (16.1 in), and the truck has a wheelbase of 1410 mm (55.5 in). The total weight of the truck when unladen is 2770 kg (6107 lb).

Engine Specs

Basic Technical Data: The main component of the Toyota 42-7FGF18 is the Toyota 4Y engine, a four-cylinder LPG unit. It has a total displacement of 2237 cc (136.5 cu.in). The engine is rated to produce 37 kW (49.6 hp) at a rated speed of 2400 rpm, according to ISO 1585 standards.

Lubrication and Cooling: The system is designed to support continuous operation in demanding conditions. The engine employs a forced lubrication system to protect internal components, and liquid cooling to maintain optimal operating temperatures.

Drive Train

Transmission: The 42-7FGF18 is equipped with a Powershift transmission. This type of transmission allows for smooth direction changes without the need for clutching, enhancing operator efficiency and reducing fatigue. It features one forward gear and one reverse gear, providing simple and intuitive control.

Travel Speed: The forklift achieves a maximum travel speed of 18.5 km/h (11.5 mph) when laden and 19 km/h (11.8 mph) when unladen. The reverse speeds are identical to the forward speeds, ensuring consistent maneuverability in both directions.

Axles and Brakes: The truck uses a drive axle configuration with two driven wheels. The service brake system is hydraulic, providing reliable stopping power for both laden and unladen operations.

Electrical System

The electrical system is engineered to reliably support the engine, safety features, and lighting. It operates on a standard 12-volt architecture, typically including a 12-volt, 70-amp alternator and a 12-volt, 65-amp-hour battery. The system powers the starter motor, the ignition system for the LPG engine, and all essential lighting components such as headlights, tail lights, and turn indicators.

Wheels and Tires

The Toyota 42-7FGF18 is fitted with pneumatic tyres, designed for traction and comfort on various surfaces. It has four wheels in total, with the front two being the driven wheels. The front tyre size is 6.50x10-10PR (I), and the rear tyre size is 5.00-8-8PR (I). The front tread width measures 890 mm (35.0 in), and the rear tread width is 895 mm (35.2 in).

The Toyota 42-7FGF18 features full hydraulic power steering. This system reduces the effort required by the operator to turn the wheels, especially when the truck is stationary or under load.

Hydraulic System

The hydraulic system is a core component for lift and tilt operations. It operates with an attachment pressure of 118 bar (1711 psi). The system's rated pump flow is 56 L/min (14.8 gal/min), which supplies the necessary volume for lift, tilt, and auxiliary hydraulic functions.

Mast Data

The Toyota 42-7FGF18 is equipped with a standard two-stage mast with high visibility. With the mast fully lowered, the height to the top of the mast is 1995 mm (78.5 in). The free lift, which is the height the forks can rise before the mast itself begins to extend, is 150 mm (5.9 in).

The maximum lift height for the standard configuration is 3000 mm (118.1 in), at which point the mast extends to a total height of 4220 mm (166.1 in). Alternative mast configurations, such as triplex masts, offer lift heights up to 4600 mm (181.1 in) or 6000 mm (236.2 in). The mast can tilt forward by 6 degrees and backward by 10 degrees to facilitate load handling and secure transport.

Load Capacity

Load Capacity: 3,858 lb (1,750 kg)
Load Centre: 19.7 in (500 mm)

Performance Data

The lift speed for the 1750 kg (3858 lb) rated load is 0.60 m/s (118.1 ft/min) when laden. When unladen, the lift speed increases to 0.64 m/s (126.0 ft/min). Lowering speed is controlled at 0.50 m/s (98.4 ft/min) for laden and 0.55 m/s (108.3 ft/min) for unladen conditions.

The maximum drawbar pull, a measure of tractive effort, is 17500 N (3934 lbf) for a laden truck and 6300 N (1416 lbf) for an unladen truck. Its gradeability, the ability to ascend a slope, is 36% when fully laden. The maximum gradeability is recorded as 41% for a laden truck and 20% for an unladen truck.

Dimensions and Weight

The overall length of the truck, including the forks, is 3280 mm (129.1 in). The length from the front face of the backrest to the fork face is 2280 mm (89.8 in). The overall width of the truck is 1070 mm (42.1 in). The standard forks have dimensions of 40 mm (1.6 in) thick, 80 mm (3.1 in) wide, and 1000 mm (39.4 in) long. The fork carriage is DIN 15 173 class II and has a width of 920 mm (36.2 in).

The height of the overhead guard is 2080 mm (81.9 in) , and the seat height is 1020 mm (40.2 in). The coupling height for towing is 280 mm (11.0 in). Ground clearance below the mast, when the truck is laden, is 115 mm (4.5 in). At the centre of the wheelbase, ground clearance is 135 mm (5.3 in).

For maneuvering in aisles, the right-angle stacking aisle width for pallets measuring 1000 by 1200 mm (39.4 by 47.2 in) with the 1200 mm (47.2 in) side across the width of the truck is 3590 mm (141.3 in). For pallets 800 by 1200 mm (31.5 by 47.2 in) with the 1200 mm (47.2 in) side along the length of the truck, the required aisle width is 3790 mm (149.2 in). The outer turning radius is 1980 mm (78.0 in), and the internal turning radius is 570 mm (22.4 in).

The total operating weight of the truck is 2770 kg (6107 lb). The truck weight with specific options or configurations can be higher, such as 2880 kg (6350 lb) or 3090 kg (6812 lb). When fully laden, the axle loading on the front axle is 4000 kg (8818 lb) and on the rear axle is 520 kg (1146 lb). When unladen, these figures shift to 1130 kg (2491 lb) on the front and 1640 kg (3616 lb) on the rear.
