Common questions people ask about the TDL201.
What is the load capacity of the TDL161/201 series?
The TDL series offers two high‑performance models: the TDL161 with a 1.6‑tonne load capacity and the TDL201 with a 2.0‑tonne load capacity, both featuring a 500 mm load centre. These 3‑wheel dual‑drive forklifts are designed to handle a wide range of indoor and outdoor applications with strength, stability and agility.
What is the maximum lift height and mast configuration?
The TDL161/201 comes with a standard lift height of 3,000 mm, while optional masts can reach up to 6,000 mm for high‑rack operations.

This series is built around EP’s 48V lithium‑ion battery system, providing reliable and maintenance‑free power. The TDL161 uses a 48V/280Ah battery, while the TDL201 offers a 48V/405Ah version. Both models include a 48V/50A integrated charger for convenient plug‑in charging, with optional 150A or 200A external chargers for faster turnaround times.
How maneuverable is the TDL series?
The compact 3‑wheel design with a tight 1,605 mm turning radius ensures outstanding manoeuvrability in narrow aisles and compact warehouse environments. Dual 5.4 kW AC drive motors deliver smooth, responsive handling, while hydraulic steering enhances precision and reduces operator fatigue during long shifts.
What comfort and safety features enhance operator performance?
The TDL161/201 prioritises operator comfort with an adjustable steering wheel, spacious cabin and a premium bucket seat.
