Bobcat® G15S-5 LPG Pneumatic Tire Forklift

Operational Enhancements

High-Visibility Mast: The forklift has hydraulic hoses and mast chains which are strategically placed to enhance forward visibility.

Operator Sensing System (OSS): Should the operator leave the seat, the OSS automatically initiates these functions:

• Quickly stops all truck movement.
• Locks the lift, lower and tilt functions of mast and hydraulic assemblies.
• A seatbelt warning light will alert the operator to re-fasten the seatbelt.
• The shift selector must be in the neutral position in order to restart the truck.

Strobe, Alarm, Mirrors: A strobe, backup alarm, and side mirrors come standard on all models.

Rear Grab Bar with Horn: Allows operator to sound the horn while holding onto the rear grab bar handle and travelling in reverse. Standard on these models.

Simplified Serviceability

Easy Access to Service Areas: Spring lock on engine cover and tool-free floor plates for easy access.

Well-Positioned Maintenance Components: All fuse and relay access is centralized and easy to access.

Quick Access to Key Elements:

• Battery
• Air Filter
• Oil Filter
• Dipstick and Fluid Level Indicators

Well-Placed LED Display:

• Continuous monitoring of all vital systems.
• Keeps operators informed of truck performance and health.
• Service error codes on dashboard display.
• Large LED display is easy to read and bright even in well-lit locations.

Enhanced Productivity

Integral Side Shifter: Replaces the forklift’s standard carriage, therefore increasing residual load capacity. It allows the operator to shift load from side-to-side for precise placement, reducing handling time, and improving maneuverability.

Operator Convenience Package: Provides excellent storage for paperwork, refreshments, small tools, etc.

Shift ProTek Hot Shift Protection: Shift ProTek limits directional changes to under 5 MPH, allowing for shift-on-the-fly and making quick shuttle applications a breeze. The market-proven Shift ProTek transmission precisely modulates clutch oil pressure for smooth forward and reverse directional changes. Shift on the go without damage to the transmission.

Auto Tilt Leveling System: The optional auto tilt leveling system feature stops the mast at a vertical position to protect the load. This prevents uneven stacking that may potentially cause product damage.

Durable Reliability

Industry-Proven LP Engines: Our LP engines provide excellent power, performance, fuel economy, low noise, and low vibration along with superior durability.

Oil-Cooled Disc Brakes: This ‘Best-in-Class’ brake system comes with a 5-year/10,000 working hour warranty.

• Discs are submerged in oil, keeping them cool and limiting wear.
• 100% of friction material is used for superior stopping power.
• OCDB are more easily serviced in the field than traditional brakes.
• System is sealed for maximum protection against contamination.

Superior Components vs. Competitive Models: The steer axle assembly is built with durable components which enhance product life and reduce maintenance costs.

• Larger diameter kingpins and tapered roller bearings for a stronger axle.
• Tapered rollers are stronger against side impact forces.
• Tapered roller bearings have an inner race to eliminate wear on the kingpin.

Lower Cost of Ownership

Steer Axle: The hydrostatic steer axle has fewer moving parts to replace, saving you downtime and costing you less to maintain.

Superior Components: Require less maintenance and reduces costs.

• Larger kingpins and tapered roller bearings.
• Tapered roller bearings are superior against side impacts.

Dual Element Air Cleaner: This feature offers added protection to the engine’s air intake, which extends engine life and reduces maintenance costs.
