Visionmast 
Revolutionary mast design
Unbeatable views, unbeatable performance

The Mitsubishi Visionmast is a development made possible by hot extrusion manufacturing technology. Its revolutionary design offers maximum visibility... and much, much more. 

Typically, hydraulic cylinders obstruct forward vision while travelling. By enclosing them within the first stage of the mast, designers have achieved an unrivalled quality of forward view. This design also offers a structure that is stiffer than its competitors - and at the same time, lighter and more compact. When you raise the mast, it is very firm. And compared to others in the marketplace it offers greater stability, with much less swaying. With its low weight and high strength, the Visionmast has substantially increased residual capacities. 

Visionmast's benefits include: 

• a compact profile providing unrivalled forward views

• improved visibility allowing for safer and more precise operations

• tougher, but lighter, mast construction resulting in superb residual capacities

• rigid, non-sway design offering enhanced truck stability

• more efficient heat dissipationextending the life of the hydraulic oil and pump

• enclosed hydraulic cylindersresulting in less damage to hydraulic hoses and sealing

Brakes 

• Highly efficient regenerative braking  means effective control and reduced brake wear.

• Load wheel brakes add extra braking power (on H models).

Drive

• Powerful AC drive motor  provides high torque, even at fast speeds, for rapid acceleration and smooth, quiet, controlled, efficient operation - and lowers service costs.

Electrical and control systems 

• New generation control system - with PIN code starter pad and emergency (slow travel) code - programmes over 25 parameters to suit load, application and driver precisely.

• CAN-bus system reduces wiring and makes fault finding quick and simple.

• Maintenance interval calculator encourages correct servicing, for optimum component life and minimum downtime.

• Temperature control - in drive and lift motors and controllers - prevents damage from overheating.

• Smooth, quiet mast movement - including mast damping, stepless staging and jolt-free reaching - enhances driver comfort and precision.

• Automatic, stepless speed reduction system constantly monitors lift height and steering angle and adjusts speed to ensure safe, controlled performance.

• Seat switch prevents all fork movement and truck travel if the driver is not seated.

• Tilting battery cover  gives quick, easy access for maintenance and charging.

• Battery rollers make changes quick, easy and safe.

Frame and body 

• Ergonomic overhead guard maximizes upward and all-round view - as well as driver protection.

Hydraulics 

• Powerful AC hydraulic motor - with extra-strength pump on H models - provides high torque for rapid but smooth - and controlled - lifting and lowering.

Mast and fork assembly
