Description

The CESAB B420 Electric Forklift is a high-performance, compact 4-wheel counterbalance truck designed for intense warehouse and logistics operations. With a 2,000kg rated lifting capacity and a 3700mm full free lift duplex mast, the B420 offers excellent load handling within tight spaces — particularly when operating in narrow aisles or drive-in racking systems. This bespoke version features a special overhead guard configuration, designed specifically to allow safe operation within drive-in racking frameworks, improving clearance and flexibility. Powered by a reliable 48V/575Ah lead-acid battery and supplied with a MIDAC 100A 3-phase charger, this truck is built for sustained multi-shift performance.

Operator safety and comfort are front and centre, with a PVC ergonomic seat featuring full adjustability and an Operator Restraint System (ORS). The machine is equipped with an integrated side shift, pedal-mounted directional control, and seat-mounted hydraulic mini-levers, delivering precise, fatigue-free handling. Advanced Intelligent Mast Design (IMD) and Intelligent Stability Design (ISD) systems come standard, actively monitoring performance and stability through sensors and actuators to help reduce downtime and increase operational safety.

Enhanced visibility and awareness are delivered via panoramic rear-view mirrors, a rear LED warning beacon, front and rear LED combination lights, and backup buzzers. The compact body, solid Solideal tyres, and 920mm carriage width make the CESAB B420 highly manoeuvrable, while maintaining maximum stability on uneven surfaces. Finished in CESAB's iconic green and grey, this forklift is ideal for businesses needing a robust, space-optimised, and safety-focused solution for drive-in racking or dense storage environments.
