The Toyota W60-80Z pallet truck is a heavy-duty electric walkie stacker with load capacities from 6,000 to 8,000 lbs. It features a 48V lithium-ion battery system, 75–85″ load center, and 4.7–7.5 mph travel speeds. Key specs include 3-stage mast heights (74–157″), 360° maneuverability via rear-wheel steering, and regenerative braking. Maintenance focuses on annual hydraulic checks and monthly wheel bearing lubrication.

What load capacities does the W60-80Z offer?
The W60-80Z series covers 6,000–8,000 lb capacities, split across models like W60 (6K), W70 (7K), and W80 (8K). Capacity depends on load center distance—75″ center supports maximum loads, while 85″ reduces capacity by 15%.

Technically, these trucks use dual AC drive motors (3.5–5 kW) and Rexroth hydrostatic pumps. The 1.5″ thick forks resist bending under 8K loads. Pro Tip: Never exceed 72″ lift height when handling maximum weights—higher elevations shift the center of gravity. For example, moving 7,000 lbs pallets in cold storage? The W70Z maintains performance at -22°F via cold-rated seals.
| Model | Capacity | Load Center |
|---|---|---|
| W60Z | 6,000 lbs | 75″ |
| W80Z | 8,000 lbs | 75″ |
How compact is the W60-80Z design?
With a 60.5″ overall width and 88–94″ length, these trucks navigate 10′ warehouse aisles. The collapsed mast height is 74″, enabling door clearance under 7′.

The chassis uses high-tensile steel (ASTM A572 Grade 50) for strength without bulk. Rear-wheel steering provides a 72″ turning radius—30% tighter than competing Hyster models. Ever seen a forklift parallel park? The W60-80Z can rotate within its footprint using the “crab steering” mode. Pro Tip: For narrow aisles under 100″, disable the side-stance feature to prevent accidental contact with racks. Transitional phrase: Beyond dimensions, let’s examine power sources.
What power systems drive the W60-80Z?
A 48V 600Ah lithium battery delivers 8–10 hours runtime, charging fully in 2.5 hours via 30A smart chargers. The AC motor generates 6,500 lbf for lifting.
The Toyota-spec LiFePO4 battery offers 2,000 cycles to 80% capacity—tripling lead-acid lifespan. Hydraulic flow rates hit 12 GPM at 2,200 PSI for fast lifting. But what if the battery dies mid-shift? The emergency mechanical lower valve safely descends loads.
| Battery Type | Cycle Life | Charge Time |
|---|---|---|
| LiFePO4 | 2,000 cycles | 2.5 hrs |
| Lead-Acid | 500 cycles | 8 hrs |
What maneuverability features exist?
The W60-80Z employs multi-mode steering—front, rear, crab, and diagonal. Dual drive motors enable 0–4.7 mph acceleration in 3 seconds.
Omni-directional movement uses CANBus-controlled Zapi controllers and IP67-rated encoders. The 8° wheel oscillation tackles uneven floors up to 3″ elevation differences. Imagine steering a shopping cart versus a sports car—the W60-80Z’s responsiveness rivals the latter. Transitional phrase: Now, how does safety keep pace with such agility?

FAQs
Yes—Redway’s 48V 600Ah drop-in replacements require only terminal adapter kits. Ensure battery dimensions (19.5″L x 30″W) match your compartment.
How often should hydraulic fluid be changed?
Every 2,000 hours or annually. Use AW68 oil for temperatures above 32°F, switching to AW46 in sub-freezing environments.
