With a mast lift capacity of 1600 kg and a support arm lift capacity of 2000 kg, the WSA161i combines strength and versatility for demanding warehouse operations. Its initial lift function provides high ground clearance for ramps and uneven floors, while also enabling double pallet transport. Powered by a 24V/100Ah Li-ion battery with integrated charger, it offers opportunity charging, zero maintenance, and long service life. Mast options up to 5.5 meters allow flexible stacking in high-rack warehouses.
The WSA161i’s initial lift raises support arms independently, providing higher ground clearance for ramps and allowing operators to transport two pallets at once, doubling efficiency.
Initial lift with double pallet handling
Equipped with high lifting and lowering speeds, plus proportional control, the WSA161i ensures precise and gentle handling of goods, even at heights up to 5.5 meters.
Fast stacking with proportional control
The 24V/100Ah Li-ion battery with integrated 24V/30A charger supports fast opportunity charging, zero maintenance, and emission-free operation. Optional 205Ah or lead-acid batteries extend runtime.
Advanced Li-ion power system
Practical features like integrated storage, a USB outlet for device charging, and an ergonomic tiller improve operator convenience, while the compact body and turtle speed mode ensure safe maneuverability in tight aisles.
Operator-focused design
Application
The WSA161i is tailored for warehouses, logistics centers, and distribution hubs requiring both stacking and double decking operations. Thanks to its initial lift, operators can move goods across docks or uneven surfaces with ease, while proportional lifting and lowering ensure precision and care for fragile loads. With travel speeds up to 5.5 km/h, compact 810 mm chassis width, and turning radius of 1826 mm, it delivers agility even in narrow aisles.
