Everything you love about Moffett, and new NX2 features that go way beyond anything you’ve ever seen before!
You probably already know the Moffett M8 55.3 NX, Canada’s favourite all-wheel truck-mounted forklift. It’s known for an incredibly light and strong, refined design; super-fast one-person mount and dismount; great operator visibility; fuel efficiency; easy access for faster maintenance and service; its fast, smooth hydraulic valve system; and its long-lasting LED work lights, streetlights, and truck lights that make low-light loading safe and easy.
Operators have always loved Moffett’s one-person, 60-second mount and dismount from the truck. They love Moffett forklifts’ performance, durability, reliability, and safety — the best in the industry and already setting the bar high as the Canadian Industry Standard (CIS). There is nothing standard about anything Moffett, but the new M8 NX2 models, like the M8 55.3 NX2, go way beyond with advanced features and a system you’ve never seen the likes of in a forklift before.
You probably climb on and off your forklift to mount and dismount it on the truck at least 2,500 times each year. Imagine never having to do that again.
The MOFFETT M8 Series NX2 models have so many outstanding features, but we have to start with this one, because there is nothing like it on any forklift. The GroundMount Plus (GMP) system makes it all about the operator. No remote control. No getting on and off your forklift. Three simple buttons (lift/retract/lower) on the side of the Moffett M8 55.3 NX2 let you mount or dismount at ground level, curbside, away from traffic. It’s safe, efficient and convenient.
Do more, deliver more, more efficiently than ever with the M8 55.3 NX2
The Moffett M8 55.3 NX2 truck-mounted forklift easily lifts 5,500 lb. to a full 10-foot lift height. Easily handle bulky loads in tight spots, over curbs, and in rough conditions. Tighter turns are made even easier with an enhanced rear steering angle, allowing an extra 30 degrees of rotation for 90-degree pivots in either direction. The two-stage retractable mast with integrated side shift and tilt functions easily positions your load where you want it. A new Class III fork carriage is stronger, adds durability, reduces weight and improves visibility of the forks and load through the mast. An intake grid heater and block heater are a boon in cold weather. Its powerful Kohler 56-hp turbo diesel engine delivers lower emissions and is DPF-free. Moffett NX2 features let you spend less time maneuvering and more time delivering. With the thousands of deliveries you make, that adds up to major savings.
Operator comfort, convenience and safety
The M8 55.3 NX2 is very much about the operator, delivering comfort, convenience, safety, smooth travel, and clean, quiet operation. It mounts easily on almost any truck or trailer. The proprietary Moffett CoverNGo™ retractable seat cover keeps your deluxe seat cushion clean and dry. Ergonomic design includes an easily accessible operator-side guard with a position sensor, a tinted all-weather overhead guard cover, a safety interlocking seatbelt and a more spacious cab and foot pedal area, keeping you comfortable even during extended operation. HiConnect provides real-time data, and an advanced 3.5” colour display alerts you and tells you everything you need to know about your Moffett forklift, including engine revs, lifting height and incline level, so you always feel in control. A robust new work light system is safer for you. Be seen from anywhere with 360-degree visibility, LED work lights with beefed-up light guards for protection. Easy access components and a redesigned radiator side panel that protects your rad and keeps the engine cooler, simplify service and maintenance and contribute to the longevity of your Moffett M8 55.3 NX forklift.
