Play It Safe

As a leader in clean air engines for nearly a decade, our products have benefited from the knowledge gained through our automotive heritage. Our K21 and K25 industrial engines incorporate an electronic engine control system, using a closed loop design to produce high combustion efficiency with lower and cleaner emission levels. We've also included several security systems as standard, and more options to meet your particular needs.For Even Greater SecuritySeveral options are available for added protection:Seatbelt Interlocks include a variety of choices for restricting forklift operations if the seatbelt is not latched.Fire Extinguisher mounted to the overhead guard pillar, for quick and easy access.Orange Seatbelt is highly visible, making seatbelt usage easier to enforce.LP Safety Rating is UL approved.Operator Presence SystemThis comprehensive system includes a seat-actuated power interrupt with mast-lock, automatically preventing lift and tilt operations if the operator leaves the seat. The return-to-neutral feature minimizes forklift movement if the operator leaves the truck while still in gear. Other audible and visual warnings come standard, including parking brake warning and seatbelt alarm.Safety Doesn't Have to be ComplicatedUnlike the complex systems offered by some competitors, our cushioned stability control is simple, extremely effective and zero maintenance - enhanced lateral stability is achieved by a rubber damper placed between the axle and frame.Seeing is BelievingCylinders are positioned behind the mast rails resulting in fewer visual obstructions for the operator. Ideal for facilities that transport delicate loads, our optional OptiView® mast makes fork positioning and load handling easier.OSHA strictly regulates carbon monoxide (CO) levels in the workplace for good reason.The Platinum ll®'s CO levels are among the lowest in its engine class - three times lower than those of a major competitor based on 2015 certification results from the California Air Resources Board.We achieved these lower and cleaner emission levels through the higher combustion efficiency delivered by our electronic engine control system that incorporates a Vehicle Control Module (VCM), Engine Control Module (ECM) and a 3-way catalytic muffler.

Power And Performance

Operator Efficiency AchievedChoose the optional integral side shifter resulting in fewer moves to store and retrieve loads, while minimizing capacity loss versus hang-on designs.More Power, More EfficientlyAdvanced engine technology makes it possible for our K21 and K25 engines to deliver greater torque at lower RPMs. This is achieved due to a combination of factors, including direct ignition coils connected to each cylinder, a centrally positioned spark plug on the combustion chamber as well as electronic monitoring and control systems. Platinum ll® models also include an atmospheric sensor that delivers enhanced performance in high altitudes.Paired for Maximum PerformanceBuilt to our specifications, the Platinum ll®'s transmission is uniquely designed to optimize the horsepower and torque of our K21 and K25 industrial engines. This proven drivetrain delivers powerful, yet efficient performance.Cleaner Running Engines for Greater PerformanceThe injector valve's powerful opening force aids in conditions where lower quality LP fuel is used. Gas is located under the valve to help reduce possible tar build up on the injectors which can adversely affect performance. A pressure sensor is located between the two injectors.Consistent Performance through Reliable TechnologyThe Platinum ll®'s engine and vehicle control modules along with multifunction display communicate through a reliable CAN-bus network to manage changing system requirements and maintain consistent performance.Built for Rugged DependabilitySolid steer axles and thick steel front fenders provide protection against harsh work environments.The Nomad's standard Power setting allows you to achieve maximum performance - and an annual productivity increase of up to 2500 cycles per truck.Study findings are based on a 1200-hour usageSwitch to the Platinum ll®'s optional Economy mode to get greater fuel efficiency. Independent testing has shown our K21 engines use nearly 11% less fuel compared to competitive models under unloaded conditions. (Results based on 5000 lb. capacity LP cushion tire models in Economy mode.)

Sweet Savings

Extra Protection Without Extra ExpenseIn the event of excessive heat or loss in engine oil pressure, our Powertrain Protection System reduces engine RPM for longer engine and drivetrain life. This great feature is standard on models powered by our K21 and K25 engines, versus competitive forklifts requiring a costly add-on.Reduce Tire Wear & Save FuelOur power/economy controlled acceleration feature restricts the acceleration rate to maximize fuel economy and minimize tire spin. Gradual acceleration is also useful when moving fragile loads or operating in confined areas. Three design choices for this option offer increasingly more security against tampering: toggle switch, key switch or set internal parameters to keep this feature activated.Long Life LEDsEverything about the Platinum ll® is designed for longer life and greater savings, including the standard LED headlights that deliver greater visibility while being more economical and cost-effective over the life of the machine.Our Overhead Guard Reduces Your OverheadBeyond ample headroom, the five-piece overhead guard takes 75% less time to make needed replacements versus competitors' single-piece, welded-on guards. That cuts downtime and costs.Save More, Waste LessWith the Platinum ll®'s standard LPMax System nearly every drop of liquid LP is used thanks to its reliable and timely low fuel warning, reducing early tank replacement and saving you money. An average 8-minute (Based on typical traveling operation in unloaded condition. Time interval varies depending upon individual application and usage.) warning means the operator can maximize productivity - instead of lugging an empty tank to the refill station.Extended Service IntervalsThe electronic ignition system means you'll service the Platinum ll® less often because the recommended times between routine maintenance is longer. And you'll spend less time doing it because the critical service points - including fluids, filters and belts - are all readily accessible.Eliminate Spark Plug Wires and Timing AdjustmentsThe engine cylinder timing is individually controlled through an ignition coil at each plug, eliminating associated maintenance. Free from mechanical linkages or aging wires that can cause performance loss, this design delivers better engine efficiency.Other serviceability features:Easy oil filter replacementFast fan belt adjustmentAccessible radiator
