MLift FB45LU Electric Forklift 4.5t

4-Wheel Lithium-Ion Electric Forklift for Medium-to-Heavy Lifting

The MLIFT FB45LU is a 4,500 kg capacity four-wheel electric forklift engineered for the demanding end of warehouse and industrial operations. Powered by a 76.8V lithium-ion system with a 20 kW AC drive motor and 26 kW lift motor, the FB45LU delivers the kind of sustained lifting performance that heavy industry has traditionally expected only from diesel or LPG machines — without the emissions, fuel costs, or engine maintenance. Stable, powerful, and built for multi-shift use with opportunity charging, it’s a serious step up for operations moving heavier loads across manufacturing floors, logistics hubs, and industrial yards.

Ideal For

  • Heavy manufacturing, fabrication, and assembly facilities
  • Logistics hubs and distribution centres handling oversized or dense freight
  • Warehousing operations running high rack storage with heavy pallet weights
  • Timber, steel, and building product yards requiring sustained heavy lifting
  • Operations transitioning from diesel or LPG forklifts at the 4–5 tonne range

Features & Benefits

High-Power AC Drive and Lift Motors

Strong, consistent performance under a full load, with the smoothness and responsiveness that AC electric systems are known for.

Lithium-Ion Battery with Opportunity Charging

The maintenance-free lithium-ion battery has no memory effect and supports opportunity charging during breaks.

Enhanced Safety Systems

Reversing alerts provide comprehensive protection in busy industrial environments and operator presence detection cuts off travel when the seat is unoccupied.

Compact Frame, Stable Under Load

The FB45LU is manoeuvrable enough for warehouse aisles while providing the stability that heavy loads demand.

Reliable Structural Strength

A reinforced chassis, robust mast structure, and solid rubber tyres as standard handle the stresses of sustained heavy lifting in industrial environments.
