Questions we get about the EFX5-351
When should I take the 3.5 t over the 2.5 t?
If your heaviest regular load exceeds 2.5 t — or sits close to it on long or offset loads — the 3.5 t gives you genuine headroom for only a small step in weekly rate. Running a 2.5 t machine at its limit every day is a safety and wear problem.
Will my floor handle it?
The EFX5-351 has a service weight around 5 t before the load. We check floor slabs, mezzanines, ramps and dock plates as part of the site assessment before delivery.
How much aisle width does it need?
Turning radius is approximately 2.5 m. As a rule of thumb allow 4 m+ working aisles for pallet work — we confirm this against your racking layout during the fit assessment.
