Multi-directional Forklift
4.0T Central Seat Electric Multi-directional Counterbalance Forklift MQK40
Load Capacity
4,000 kg at 600 mm load centre
Lift Height
4,500–7,500 mm
MQK40 is a 4.0-tonne central-seat electric multi-directional counterbalance forklift for long materials and heavy palletised loads. Three driven wheels with independent steering enable straight, sideways and diagonal travel, plus turning on the spot. Its central driving position, adjustable forks and 80V AC system support narrow-aisle stacking and outdoor yard operations.
Ideal For
- Long and heavy material handling
- Narrow-aisle stacking operations
- Outdoor bulk-storage yards
Product Highlights
Generous leg space provides a more comfortable driving position and greater freedom of movement.
Comfortable seating provides stable support and helps reduce fatigue during extended operation.

Product Description
Central-Seat Multi-directional Counterbalance Forklift
The MiMA MQK40 is a 4.0-tonne electric multi-directional counterbalance forklift with a central driving position. Its rated capacity is 4,000 kg at a 600 mm load centre.
Three-Wheel Drive and Steering
Three 4.5 kW AC drive motors power all three wheels. Independent steering enables straight, sideways and diagonal travel, plus turning on the spot. Straight and sideways travel speeds are both 10–12 km/h.
Fork and Aisle Configuration
Adjustable forks are standard, with an outside spread of 550–1,630 mm. The reference minimum stacking aisle width starts from 3,173 mm and changes according to the load dimensions.
Mast Options
Triplex full-free masts are available with lift heights from 4,500 to 7,500 mm. Standard mast tilt is 1° forward and 3.5° backward. Residual capacity decreases as lift height or load centre increases.
AC System and Lithium Battery
The MQK40 uses three AC drive motors and a 21 kW AC lift motor. Power is supplied by an 80V/600Ah lithium battery with a side-extraction design for battery access and maintenance.
Operation and Safety
The central-seat layout, electronic steering, integrated control handle and wheel-position display support operation in multiple travel directions. Electromagnetic service and parking brakes, OPS monitoring and LED lighting are included.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is a central-seat multi-directional counterbalance forklift?
It combines counterbalanced load handling with multi-directional travel while positioning the operator near the vehicle centreline. This supports visibility and control when travelling in different directions.
Q2: How does the central-seat MQK40 differ from a side-seat model?
The main difference is the operator position. The central-seat layout provides a more balanced driving position for straight, sideways and diagonal travel. Model selection should also consider capacity, load centre and vehicle dimensions.
Q3: What types of loads is the MQK40 designed to handle?
It is designed for long materials, heavy loads and conventional palletised goods. Typical applications include metal profiles, timber, pipes and other extended loads, subject to load-chart verification.
Q4: Can the MQK40 lift 4,000 kg to 7,500 mm?
No. The 4,000 kg rating applies at a 600 mm load centre under the rated configuration. According to the load chart, residual capacity at 7,500 mm and a 600 mm load centre is 2,250 kg.
Q5: How is the required stacking aisle width calculated?
Aisle width depends on load length, load depth, fork spread, rack layout and load overhang. The datasheet gives reference values from 3,173 to 4,173 mm. At least 100 mm additional clearance is recommended for efficient operation.
Q6: Which mast configurations are available?
Standard triplex full-free mast options provide lift heights from 4,500 to 7,500 mm. The required mast should be selected according to lift height, closed mast height, free lift and residual capacity.
Q7: Does the MQK40 use three-wheel drive?
Yes. The MQK40 uses three 4.5 kW AC drive motors, with all three wheels driven and independently steered. It also uses electromagnetic service and parking brakes.
Q8: What information is required to configure the MQK40?
Selection requires the load weight, dimensions, load centre, maximum lift height, aisle width, rack layout, floor conditions, operating hours and charging requirements.
