This Svetruck 1560 is a mast container handler — sometimes referred to as a reach stacker or container lift truck — designed for the heavy-duty handling, lifting, and repositioning of intermodal containers in port terminals, logistics hubs, and industrial yards. Svetruck is a Swedish manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for building robust container handlers and heavy forklifts serving the ports, shipping, and heavy-industry sectors.
The machine is equipped with an integrated sideshift and fork positioner, allowing the operator to adjust forks laterally and vary the spread without dismounting, which significantly improves precision when picking and placing loads. The forks themselves measure 75 mm in thickness and are roller-guided within the mast, reducing friction and wear during lifting cycles and contributing to smoother, more controlled load movement. The rated load centre is 600 mm, a standard reference distance used to determine safe working capacity relative to the load's centre of gravity.
The overall forklift width is 2,500 mm, relevant for operators assessing aisle clearance and site access. Tyres are sized 315/80-22.5 on both front and rear axles, a robust specification suited to the demanding ground conditions typically encountered in container yards and heavy freight environments.
Several practical features are noted in the specification. Dual-tread tyres improve traction and load-bearing stability under heavy use. Front and rear mud guards are fitted, offering protection to the machine and operator in outdoor or mixed-surface working environments. A centralised greasing system is also installed, simplifying routine lubrication maintenance by allowing multiple grease points to be serviced from a single location, reducing downtime and supporting consistent upkeep.
This is a used machine from 2011, located in Denmark.
