Bobcat B80NSC

Four-wheel electric counterbalance forklifts, 8.0-10.0 t
Our 8–10 ton electric counterbalance forklifts deliver powerful, high-performance operation.

The B80NSC series offers excellent visibility and the latest ergonomic hydraulic controls. With dual drive motors, these forklifts are ideal for demanding applications.

Reliable AC drive systems provide an unbeatable combination of performance and dependability. Every parameter is fully adjustable to suit your specific needs, giving maximum control and precision across all functions.

Spacious, ergonomic operator cabin
The cabin is designed to reduce operator fatigue, providing greater comfort and safer operation.

Generous legroom allows the operator to drive comfortably, even during long 8-hour shifts.

Low step height and anti-slip entry plate make getting on and off the forklift easy and safe.

Large handgrip and non-slip step plate further assist safe entry and exit.

Full-color display
The easy-to-read color display keeps the operator informed of the forklift’s status at a glance.

Mast lowering cushioning (2-stage masts only)
Hydraulic cushioning reduces impact by slowing the lowering speed at the end of the stroke.

Ergonomic hydraulic controls

The directional switch is conveniently located on the hydraulic control lever, allowing smoother operation with minimal movement.

The tilt cylinder is integrated inside the chassis for easier entry and low maintenance, as the piston is protected from dust and damage.

Convenience package
Includes USB port, document holder, and cup holder for added operator comfort.

Durable components for longer uptime and lower maintenance costs

Robust single-drive motor
The high-performance single-drive axle efficiently transmits the motor’s power and torque.

IP54-rated AC motor
Protects the motor and components from fluids from any direction, even in the rain.

Reliable operation
The Curtis AC controller manages drive and hydraulic functions for optimal performance and efficiency.

IP67 water- and dust-resistant
Provides protection even if submerged up to 1 meter underwater.

Electronic foot brake (EFB)
Activates braking through the motor’s electronic control instead of traditional hydraulic brakes, simplifying braking and reducing maintenance costs.

Optional motor guard
Shields the motor from water, dust, and debris from the ground.

Electronic parking brake
The parking brake automatically engages after 3 seconds of stopping to prevent accidents. The Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) prevents the forklift from rolling backward when stopped on an incline.

Guardian Stability System (GSS), enhances vehicle stability during operation

Operator Sensing System (OSS), ensures safe operation by detecting operator presence

Neutral start, forklift can only start in neutral

Unlimited ramp hold, secure stopping on inclines

Automatic speed control, optimizes safe driving speeds

Low battery warning, alerts operator when battery is low

Brake oil and seatbelt indicator, ensures proper safety measures are in place

Mast lowering lock and tilt lock, prevents accidental movement of the mast

Optional safety lights:

Red zone light, alerts pedestrians with reflective red lines around the vehicle

Blue safety light, warns pedestrians with a projected blue light.

Maximized performance and efficiency
The combination of the high-efficiency Curtis AC controller, high-power motor, and drive axle maximizes performance, delivering peak productivity across a wide range of applications.

Lower operating costs
With no motor brushes, commutators, or directional and hydraulic switches, maintenance and operational costs are reduced.

Energy-efficient operation
Optimized energy consumption allows longer runtime per battery charge.

Exceptional visibility

Redesigned mast lift chains and structures provide excellent forward visibility.

Reduced front hood height minimizes blind spots.

Improved thickness and layout of the overhead guard ensure a wide field of view.

High residual capacity
Enhanced stability maintains a high residual load even at 4 m lifting height.
