• Palfinger North America introduces the newest model in CR Series of forklifts
A heavy duty forklift for tough demand

Niagara Falls = June 2007

PALFINGER North America has introduced to the North American marketplace, the latest in their CR Series of forklifts. The CR 55 4-way forklift was launched to the North American market during Pafingers’ North American Dealer Sales Conference in May.

The CR 55 4-way allows operators to deliver building materials such as scaffolding, lumber or wallboard over rugged terrain and through crowded work sites by turning all wheels sideways. The product can be off-loaded exactly where it is needed which helps reduce product damage, physical strain and product re-handling.

The new CR 55 4-way unit offers a lift capacity up to 5500 lbs. It has the shortest truck-mount overhang per model in the industry making it easier and safer to transport. The center seatpositioning gives the operator easier on-and-off access, a more stable feel and a much better view for judging load centers or mounting the truck.

The assembly of the CR 55 4-way units will begin in September 2007 at the Crayler forklift assembly plant in Tiffin, Ohio.
