Baka EFV 2500 SO: high-lift pallet truck with a triplex mast, a lift height of 3,010 millimetres and a load capacity of 2,800 kilograms for stacking and order picking up to rack level
The EFV 2500 SO from Baka belongs to the group of high-lift pallet trucks, materials-handling equipment that does not just raise a pallet for transport but can carry it up to rack level. This sets them apart from simple low-lift pallet trucks, whose mast offers only a few centimetres of lift, enough for transport alone.

The EFV 2500 SO reaches a lift height of 3,010 millimetres with a load capacity of 2,800 kilograms. The lifting motion runs through a triplex mast, a three-stage mast that stays compact when retracted, letting the truck pass through low doorways and openings, and only extends to its full height once the load is raised.
High-lift pallet trucks such as the EFV 2500 SO are used wherever goods are stored on racking above head height and have to be put away and retrieved again, for example in warehouses with several rack levels or in order picking. The operator usually walks alongside the truck or rides on a platform while the triplex mast lifts the load vertically to the level needed.
When buying second-hand, check the triplex mast for smooth running of all three stages and for oil traces on the lift cylinders, since a leaking cylinder lets the load sink slowly. The lifting chains or belts show wear through stretching, which can be measured with a gauge. The rollers and wheels deserve a look for flat spots and cracks, since they carry particular strain at the full load capacity of 2,800 kilograms.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
