What makes the TCL122 work
The TCL122 keeps the TCL101's 1,020 mm width but adds 200 kg of capacity on a longer 1,300 mm wheelbase. Here's what that gives you.
Extra capacity, same width
The TCL122 lifts 1,200 kg at a 500 mm load centre and is still only 1,020 mm wide. A longer 1,300 mm wheelbase and 2,469 kg service weight give it the stability for the higher rating.
Built for low ceilings
The overhead guard is 1,988 mm high and the lowered mast 2,048 mm. It can work in basements, under mezzanines and through low doorways.
Dual-drive steering
Two drive motors share the work and let it turn on the spot. The turning radius is 1,519 mm, and top speed is 13 km/h unladen.
Lithium with a built-in charger
The 80V lithium battery charges from the truck's own charger, so you plug in where it's parked. There's no watering, and short top-ups during breaks are fine.
Efficient PMSM motors
Permanent-magnet motors cut energy use by 10 to 15% compared with conventional motors, according to EP. They also need no routine motor maintenance.
Safety in tight spaces
Turn speed control, automatic stop on ramps and an electromagnetic parking brake are built in. Noise at the seat is 68 dB(A).

How is the TCL122 different from the TCL101?
It lifts 1,200 kg instead of 1,000 kg. To carry that it has a longer wheelbase (1,300 mm against 1,200 mm), is 484 kg heavier and turns in 1,519 mm instead of 1,422 mm. Both are 1,020 mm wide and lift to 4.5 m.
Should I choose the TCL122 or the TCL152?
Pick the TCL152 if you handle loads over 1.2 t. It is rated at 1,500 kg and runs on an 80V 100Ah battery. The TCL122 is slightly shorter, at 2,732 mm against 2,787 mm, and turns a little tighter.
Will the TCL122 fit in a goods lift?
It is 1,020 mm wide, 2,732 mm long overall and weighs 2,469 kg in service. Check your lift's size and rated load against those figures plus your load, and ask us if you're unsure.
What aisle width does it need?
EP quotes 3,207 mm for 1000 x 1200 pallets carried crossways and 3,336 mm for 800 x 1200 pallets lengthways.
Can it work outdoors?
It's an indoor truck, with solid tyres and 93 mm of ground clearance under the mast. For yard work, the EFL183 on pneumatic tyres is the better fit.
How high can it lift?
The standard mast lifts 3.0 m, and the maximum lift height is 4.5 m.
Can I hire the TCL122?
Yes, on contract hire, at a weekly price on a 12-month contract, with servicing and repairs included. We don't offer short-term hire. See forklift hire.
How much does the TCL122 cost?
It depends on the mast, battery and options you need. Ask for a price and we'll quote it to buy outright or on contract hire.
Who services the TCL122?
Our own engineers, from our Navan depot and Portadown office, using EP parts. We look after customers across Ireland and Northern Ireland.
