Rent the Manitou MI 50 D – Triplex 5,000 mm
Five-ton load capacity, five-meter lifting height, triplex mast with full free lift—the Manitou MI 50 D is the industrial counterbalance forklift designed for heavy loads in warehouses, production facilities, and logistics centers. It sets the standard for applications where a 3.5-ton model falls short but a rough-terrain forklift would be unsuitable.

Area of ​​Application
The MI 50 D is an industrial counterbalance forklift, meaning it is equipped with super-elastic solid rubber tires for use on level, paved surfaces. It is designed for indoor warehouses, storage facilities, logistics centers, and industrial yards, rather than construction sites with unpaved ground.

Typical applications:

Heavy-duty racking operations with loads between 3.5 and 5 tons

Truck loading and unloading in paved outdoor areas

Industrial loading logistics (e.g., steel, paper, plastics, or mechanical engineering)

Pallet handling in production halls during long shifts

The combination of a 5-ton load capacity and a triplex mast allows for lifting to a height of 5 meters without the forklift itself extending to that total height. Free lift makes it possible: the fork carriage rises before the mast extends—a crucial feature for warehouses with limited ceiling height.

Why a Triplex mast with a 5,000 mm lift height?
A standard mast with the same lift height would extend significantly beyond the main mast structure when raised. The Triplex mast solves this problem with its three-stage design: the machine maintains a low overall mast height while the forks are already lifting the load. This is not merely a theoretical advantage; in practice, it determines whether a machine can be used in your facility at all.

For operations with racking heights between 4 and 5 meters and heavy loads, there are few alternatives capable of moving such weight safely and cost-effectively at this height.

Engine and Transmission
The Kubota or Cummins diesel engine (please verify the specific engine based on the model year or generation) ensures a stable hydraulic power supply, even under continuous load. The torque converter transmission allows for smooth starting and precise maneuvering into narrow racking aisles without abrupt load shifts. This extends the machine's service life and reduces operator fatigue during long shifts.

Super-elastic solid rubber tires operate without air pressure—eliminating tire failure and pressure loss, and requiring less maintenance than pneumatic tires on smooth industrial flooring.

Standard Equipment
Integrated sideshift: Precise load positioning without the need to reposition the truck in the aisle

Load backrest: Protects the operator from unsecured or overhanging loads

Ergonomic operator station: Adjustable seat height, clearly arranged controls, and easy entry and exit

Hydraulically controlled functions: Sensitive, precise lifting and tilting, even with heavy loads

FAQ
What is the difference between the Manitou MI 50 D and the M50-4? Both models have a 5,000 kg lifting capacity but are designed for different environments. The MI 50 D is an industrial counterbalance forklift with solid rubber tires, designed for paved surfaces in warehouses and on company premises. The M50-4 is an all-wheel-drive rough-terrain forklift featuring pneumatic tires and high ground clearance for uneven outdoor terrain. The MI 50 D is the right choice for indoor operations involving heavy loads.

What does "free lift" mean in the context of a triplex mast? Free lift refers to the distance the fork carriage rises before the mast itself begins to extend upwards. This allows for lifting operations under low ceilings without an immediate increase in the mast's overall height—a highly practical advantage for warehouse operations with ceiling heights under 6 meters.

Which industries is this forklift suitable for? The steel industry, paper warehousing, plastics processing, mechanical engineering, and automotive supply—anywhere heavy loads need to be moved across multiple racking levels. It is also suitable for heavy-duty handling on paved outdoor surfaces.
