Features
Performance
Reliable AC Controller
Make every move count with dedicated Curtis® AC controllers managing independent drive and hydraulic motors for efficient travel and powerful lifts.
Excellent Visibility
Visibility helps operators work faster and more efficiently on the jobsite. Neatly arranged hydraulic hoses reduce clutter, and an overhead guard with an angled roof bar offers an upward view without compromising strength or safety.
Responsive Acceleration and Braking
Enjoy controlled, responsive acceleration and smooth braking. A soft-start limits initial torque for a secure launch, then the controller delivers steady power to maintain your set speed and productivity.
Swift Directional Changes
Toggle between forward and reverse with a conveniently placed control – on the lift lever or, optionally, on the steering column.
Comfort
Spacious Cab
Enjoy increased space in the operator compartment thanks to the compact steering wheel. This not only eases maneuverability in tight spaces and enhances response time but also allows for more precise load handling. Plus, it reduces operator fatigue and boosts training efficiency for new operators.
Leg Room
The operator compartment provides ample leg room to minimize strain, enhance focus and create a more relaxed work atmosphere for the operator.
Effortless Control
Operators can seamlessly control truck performance during operation with the user-friendly instrument panel, which offers a wide range of adjustments and settings. The panel also provides other alerts, ergonomic options and language preferences for a more comfortable and user-friendly experience.
Added Convenience
For maximum convenience, the cab includes a large cup holder, USB port, 12V power outlet and clipboard holder, all comfortably placed within reach.
Easy Access
The anti-slip step provides a comfortable and safe way to get on and off for peace of mind.
Year-Round Comfort
Configure comfort for your climate: choose a fan for the operator compartment, an enclosed cab with heater, or an enclosed cab with heat and air conditioning (cab optional by model).
Enhance Your Workspace
The cab features an optional radio and MP3 player, improving focus and relaxation on the job.
Safety
Anti-Roll-Back
The anti-roll-back feature prevents the forklift from rolling back for five seconds when the truck is stopped.
Operator Sensing System
To prevent any unwanted movement, the OSS (Operator Sensing System) keeps the operator safe by disabling both truck travel and mast lifting functions when the seat is unoccupied.
Mast and Tilt Inter-Locks
When the operator leaves the truck unattended, the hydraulic locking system prevents unintentional lowering and tilting of the mast. This keeps the truck, load and work area safe.
Turtle Mode
To make warehouse operations more secure, activate Turtle mode to decrease the truck’s travel speed to a preset level while maintaining lift speed.
Automatic Speed Control
The automatic speed control manages travel speeds when turning sharply and automatically slows the truck down when cornering to reduce the risk of accidents or damage.
Emergency Switch
Optimally placed emergency switch helps to mitigate the risk of accidents or injury.
Panoramic Mirror
Operators can use large panoramic mirrors to view the rear working area.
LED Lighting System
Bright lights help to illuminate workspace for improved safety and maneuvering.
Serviceability
Designed to Endure
The B25S-7 Series is engineered to minimize damage, decrease downtime, boost safety and enhance operator comfort. We provide cold storage hydraulic oil that is effective in environments as cold as -20°C, ensuring optimal operational efficiency for your intralogistics business.
Two-Year Warranty
Bobcat develops every machine to the highest standards of quality and durability. That’s why our standard warranty provides 24 months or 2,000 operating hours (whichever occurs first) of coverage.
