Electric Counterbalance Forklift Truck 3.5T
A 3.5 tonne lithium-ion forklift with air-filled tyres and a battery you can double from 280Ah to 560Ah. Built for heavier loads in yards, factories and building sites.

The EFL352X5 brings the X5 Series' modular battery to 3.5 tonnes. Here's how it handles heavier work.
Run one 80V 280Ah module or fit two for 560Ah. Start with one and add capacity later if your hours increase, with no change to the truck.
A 30 kW lift motor and 16 kW drive motor handle heavier loads. It travels at 16 km/h laden and lifts at 0.44 m/s with a full load.
Pneumatic tyres and 150 mm of ground clearance get it across potholes, ramps and unpaved yards. It climbs 18% laden and 25% unladen.
Standard forks are 50 mm thick, and the attachment circuit delivers 180 bar at 35 l/min. That covers most clamps and positioners.
Moving 3.5 t loads all day is easier from a cab designed around the driver. A high-visibility mast gives a clear view of the fork tips, the seat has an armrest, the brake pedal is wide and the LED display is large. Brighter front LEDs help when working into trailers or after dark.
No diesel, oil or filters, and no battery watering. Our engineers in Navan and Portadown handle the servicing.
Same truck, different battery sizes, so you only pay for the capacity you'll use.
One module. Suits most single shifts, with top-ups in breaks.
Two modules, for multi-shift work or busy seasons.
Not sure which size? Tell us your shift pattern and we'll recommend one.

See this month's offers →A new EFL352X5 for a fixed monthly payment, from 12 months, with servicing and repairs included.
See forklift hire →Spread the cost of buying over time, at the strong rates our volume with EP has earned us.
See finance options →Yes. Pneumatic tyres, 150 mm of clearance and sealed electrics come as standard on the 3.5 t X5. With 18% gradeability laden it handles loading docks, ramps and broken yard surfaces.
Lifting 3.5 t takes more out of the battery, so it's worth getting this right. A single 80V 280Ah module covers a typical single shift if the truck can top up in breaks. Fit a second for 560Ah on double shifts, either from day one or as a later upgrade.
Both lift 3.5 t to 6 m. The EFL352X5 uses pneumatic tyres, a modular 280 or 560Ah battery and travels at 16 km/h laden. The EFL353 runs on solid tyres with a 280Ah battery, travels at 11 km/h laden and turns tighter at 2,405 mm.
At 3.5 t the X5 is 1,230 mm wide and swings round in 2,498 mm. For 1,000 x 1,200 mm pallets carried crossways, EP specifies a 4,184 mm aisle. On a tighter site, the solid-tyred EFL353 turns in 2,405 mm.
For 3.5 t loads up to 6 m, usually yes, with no exhaust and much lower running costs. Send us your loads, heights and ground conditions and we'll confirm.
