The Palfinger FLM 25 electric is the fully electric version of Palfinger's middle-seat truck-mounted forklift FLM 25. Like the diesel variant it reaches a full lifting capacity of 2,500 kg at a dead weight under 2,000 kg, has a 180 degree steering angle and a central, raised operator seat at 1.44 m with 360 degree all-round view. Telescopic forks and a four-wheel steering mode ease work with long loads.
The electric drive runs without exhaust and quietly. That is an advantage for deliveries in city centres, in low-emission zones and at noise-sensitive times, when a diesel engine at the rear of the lorry disturbs. The forklift is carried on the lorry rear so that deliveries can be unloaded directly at the destination.
With electric truck-mounted forklifts the battery decides operating time. Depending on the use, the battery is charged between tours on the vehicle or at the depot. As the electric variant, the FLM 25 electric complements the Palfinger range for emission-free supply chains.
Palfinger – From a Repair Shop in Bergheim to a Crane Manufacturer
Richard Palfinger founded a repair shop for agricultural trailers, tippers and vehicle bodies in Bergheim near Salzburg in 1932. In 1959 the firm built its first own crane, and when his son Hubert Palfinger took over management in 1964, production switched to hydraulic loader cranes. Over the following years, Palfinger filed several patents, including for a mast-planting grab (1973) and a folding main boom (1976). In 1974, the truck-mounted forklift was launched as a further product. By 1989 Palfinger was present in over 70 countries, with an export rate above 90 percent; it went public on the Vienna Stock Exchange in 1999. Listed in the register: BM 214.

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.
