Integrated side-shift and fork-positioning functions allow quick adjustment for different load widths and more efficient handling.
Multi-directional Forklift
3.0T Central Seat Electric Multi-directional Counterbalance Forklift MQK30
Load Capacity
3,000 kg at 500 mm load centre
Lift Height
4,600–8,000 mm
MQK30 is a 3.0-tonne central-seat electric multi-directional counterbalance forklift for long materials and palletised loads. Dual front-wheel drive and independent three-wheel steering enable straight, sideways and diagonal travel, plus turning on the spot. Its compact counterbalanced chassis, adjustable side-shifting forks and low overhead guard support narrow aisles, outdoor yards and height-restricted areas.
Ideal For
- Long materials and palletised loads
- Narrow-aisle and mixed indoor-outdoor operations
- Containers and height-restricted working areas
Product Highlights
Clear real-time wheel position and truck status information make steering and maneuvering more intuitive and precise.

Product Description
Central-Seat Multi-directional Counterbalance Forklift
The MiMA MQK30 is a 3.0-tonne electric multi-directional counterbalance forklift with a central driving position. Its counterbalanced chassis supports long materials and conventional palletised loads without reach-truck support arms.
Multi-directional Drive
Dual front-wheel drive and independent three-wheel steering enable straight, sideways and diagonal travel, plus turning on the spot. Straight travel speed is 9–10 km/h, while sideways travel speed is 7–8 km/h.
Fork and Aisle Configuration
Adjustable forks with integrated ±100 mm side shift are standard. The fork outside spread ranges from 400 to 1,400 mm. Reference minimum stacking aisle widths are 2,940 mm and 3,140 mm, depending on pallet dimensions and load centre.
Mast Options
Triplex full-free masts are available with lift heights from 4,600 to 8,000 mm. Standard mast tilt is 1° forward and 3.5° backward. Residual capacity decreases as lift height or load centre increases.
AC System and Battery Options
The MQK30 uses a 7 kW AC drive system and a 14 kW AC lift motor. A 48V/900Ah lead-acid battery is standard, while a 48V/600Ah lithium battery is optional. The side-extraction design provides access for battery replacement and maintenance.
Low-Profile Operation and Safety
The overhead guard height is 2,250 mm, supporting operation in height-restricted areas. Electronic steering, wheel-position display, electromagnetic braking, OPS monitoring and LED lighting are included.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is a central-seat multi-directional counterbalance forklift?
A1: It combines counterbalanced load handling with straight, sideways and diagonal travel. The central driving position supports visibility and control when changing travel direction.
Q2: How does the Central Seat MQK30 differ from the Side Seat MQK30?
A2: The main difference is the operator position and vehicle configuration. The central-seat model has a centrally located driving compartment, a lower overhead guard and different dimensions, battery options and aisle requirements.
Q3: What types of loads can the MQK30 handle?
A3: It is designed for long materials, bulky loads and conventional palletised goods. Final selection depends on the load weight, dimensions, load centre and required lift height.
Q4: Can the MQK30 lift 3,000 kg to 8,000 mm?
A4: No. The rated capacity is 3,000 kg at a 500 mm load centre, but residual capacity decreases with lift height. The load chart specifies 1,000 kg at 8,000 mm and a 500 mm load centre.
Q5: How is the required stacking aisle width calculated?
A5: Aisle width depends on load dimensions, pallet orientation, fork spread, rack layout and load overhang. The datasheet reference starts from 2,940 mm. At least 100 mm additional clearance is recommended for efficient operation.
Q6: Can the MQK30 work inside a standard container?
A6: The truck has a 2,250 mm overhead guard height and is intended for height-restricted applications. Actual suitability must be checked against the container entrance height, floor clearance, mast configuration and load dimensions.
Q7: Which battery options are available?
A7: A 48V/900Ah lead-acid battery is standard. A 48V/600Ah lithium battery is available as an option. Battery selection should consider shift length, charging facilities and maintenance requirements.
Q8: What information is required to configure the MQK30?
A8: Selection requires the load weight and dimensions, load centre, lift height, aisle width, rack layout, entrance height, floor conditions, operating hours and preferred battery type.
