Versatility and Value

Outdoors, the Nomad is a rugged workhorse that’s ideal for demanding applications on any improved surface. Indoors, it’s a highly agile machine that easily maneuvers in tight spaces — but its unique capability to move from one environment to the other is what really sets it apart.

Outmaneuvers the competition

A shorter frame combined with a wider, shorter

wheelbase creates a tighter turning radius and the

precise maneuverability of a cushion tire truck.

Dual-fuel flexibility

The Nomad’s dual-fuel K21 engine is powered

by gas or LP — for high power and low emissions

indoors and out.

5

The Nomad puts an end to the waste of time, space and trouble of setting up staging areas and transferring loads. It is truly a hybrid that combines the best of both cushioned tire and pneumatic tire models to reduce cycle times, increase efficiency and maximize the productivity of your operation.

Solid performance advantages

The solid pneumatic tires enable the Nomad to work

on a variety of surfaces — from the factory floor to the

loading dock and work yard. The Nomad also main-

tains higher capacity retention than similarly sized

pneumatic forklifts while it virtually eliminates flat tires.

Breathe easier

Whether you choose our LPG or dual-fuel engine, our

legendary K21 provides the ultimate combination of

power, torque and low emissions.

The unique design of our 5-piece componentized overhead guard cuts replacement time by 75%.

(See page 13 for details.)

The extraordinary fuel efficiency of our K21 engine means less time is spent refueling…and more

productivity is gained on every shift.

Up Your UpTime

6

The Nomad is designed so routine maintenance is required less often and can be completed faster. It’s equipped with sophisticated elec-tronics that monitor performance to prevent major problems. And it’s built to strict specifications and exacting tolerances so you can be sure your Nomad forklifts — and your operation — will always be up and running.

Easy LP tank changes

With our simplified LP replacement

system on our 5,000-lb. model,

an optional bracket swings out

90º, then pulls down to a manage-

able height, for faster, easier tank

replacement.

RR

Better By Design

Some competitors spare no expense to design a highly

sophisticated and complex stability control system — while

we’ve found a better way: a simple rubber damper that costs

little to make, nothing to maintain and never needs repair.

Cleaner running and longer lasting performance

The K21 Engine is so sophisticated, advanced and reliable it has become the go-to engine for our customers…

and our competitors.

Built to run cleaner and last longer, the K21 features: an injector valve that produces a powerful opening force

to aid in conditions where lower quality LP fuel is used…a design that has gas located under the valve to help

reduce possible tar build-up on the injectors that can affect operation…and a pressure sensor located between

the two injectors.

Optimize system performance

Through a reliable CAN-bus network,

the engine control module (ECM) and

the vehicle control module (VCM) remain

in constant communication with each

other to continuously manage and optimize

system performance.

Get back up again quickly

On-board diagnostics accessed

through the LCD meter panel help

technicians identify problems quickly

so the unit is back up and on the job

faster. There’s no need for a tablet or

laptop to access error codes.

Stay cool

Our dependable three-stage cooling

system includes:

1. An electronic engine protection

warning system that continuously

monitors radiator and transmis-

sion oil temperatures

2. An innovative bottom bypass

design with thermostat to prevent

hot spots and prolong engine life

3. A 10-blade fan along with an

aluminum radiator for effective

cross-flow cooling

Superior visibility to steer clear of potential problems

A standard high-visibility carriage and your choice of an

OptiView®, triple-stage or wide-view mast — together

these features produce clear sightlines for both loading

and moving.

Comfort Zone

Our seat supports your driver and your productivity

The lumbar support and weight adjust-

ments create customized comfort for

each operator, while a non-cinching

seatbelt allows a wider range of

movement. The full suspension design

absorbs shocks for a smoother, more

comfortable ride — and it’s all standard

on Nomad Series forklifts.

8

Lumbar support adjustment

Weight adjustment

Driving a forklift can be both physically and mentally fatiguing, which can impact the health and wellbeing of your operators, the safety of your facility and the productivity of your operations. That’s why UniCarriers incorporates proven, ergonomic designs throughout our forklifts to optimize the comfort, visibility and performance of your operators.

The fluid movement, ease and control

of the Nomad’s spinner knob makes

it ideal for operating in reverse and in

tight spaces — and a favorite option

of forklift drivers.

R

Better fork tip visibility

Controls are ergonomically placed

across a low profile cowl, making

visibility while picking up loads easier

for a variety of operator heights.

9

Look back with confidence

To improve both maneuverability and operator comfort while driving in reverse,

an optional secure assist grip is available with a built-in horn button. For

even more comfort, the 5,000-lb. Nomad model is available with an optional

package that includes a swivel seat that pivots 15˚ in either direction.

Performance at your fingertips

The automotive-style fingertip controls

are intuitive and ergonomically placed

on either side of the steering column.

Big time comfort

The Nomad may be compact on the

outside, but it provides plenty of foot,

leg and head room inside.

Designed to save time and money

Our five-piece reinforced overhead

guard takes 75% less time to make

needed replacements versus most

competitors’ single-piece weld-on

guards. That cuts downtime and

saves money, too.

Extended service intervals

You’ll service the Nomad less often because the recommended times between

routine maintenance procedures is longer. And you’ll spend less time doing it

because the critical service points — including fluids, filters and belts — are all

readily accessible.

Is low maintenance a high priority?

Our electronic ignition system

eliminates spark plug wires and timing

adjustments because the engine cyl-

inder timing is individually controlled

through an ignition coil at each plug.

With no mechanical linkages or aging

wires that can cause performance

loss, it’s a design that will continue

to deliver better engine efficiency

and better uptime performance.

Creating a safe work environment is a priority for your operation and ours. From cleaner emissions and clearer sightlines to an ingenious stabilizer system and our comprehensive operator presence system — our engineers have overlooked no opportunity to enhance workplace safety.

Breathe easier

The Nomad’s CO levels are among

the lowest in its engine class — three

times lower than those of a major

competitor based on 2014 certifica-

tion results from the California Air

Resources Board.

We achieved these lower and cleaner

emission levels through the higher

combustion efficiency delivered by

our electronic engine control system

that incorporates a Vehicle Control

Module (VCM), Engine Control

Module (ECM) and a 3-way catalytic

muffler.

*Based on 2014 CARB certification results.

Safety doesn’t have to be complicated

Unlike the complex system offered

by some competitors, our cushion

stability control is simple, extremely

effective and zero maintenance —

enhanced lateral stability is achieved

by a rubber damper placed between

Seeing is believing

Ideal for newer operators or facilities that transport

delicate loads, our OptiView® mast combined with our

high-visibility carriage makes fork positioning and load

handling easier.

Cylinders are positioned behind the mast rails resulting in fewer visual obstructions for the operator.

Seat-actuated operator presence system

Our operator presence system is

among the most comprehensive and

sophisticated in any industry. Activated

within three seconds after the operator

leaves the seat, it sounds a seatbelt

alarm, automatically locks the mast’s

lift and tilt functions, shifts the trans-

mission into neutral, alerts the driver

to set the parking brake — and then

prompts the driver to engage his seat-

belt before restarting.
