CHL Series Guide (G3, H4, G2, CBD…)
A clear short overview of what each major CHL series is for.
How to read this guide
The summary below groups major catalog families by “what job?” Numeric values such as capacity, mast or battery are model-specific—always check the product page table. Type a series code in search (e.g. G3, CBD15) to filter quickly.
Electric forklift series
Use these electric families for counterbalance work in warehouses and production.
- G3 — electric counterbalance; dual-drive / three-wheel options
- H4 / H4C — mainstream electric warehouse forklift family
- H2 — mid electric range
Diesel forklift series
Diesel families stand out for outdoor and heavy-duty work.
- K2C — diesel counterbalance
- R — rough-terrain diesel
- K2C HV — related models when high-voltage lithium is needed
Narrow aisle and reach
For high-bay narrow aisles, G2 reach truck is the main family. CQDH / CQDM complete the reach / VNA family. For piece/case picking, see OPD / OPDS order pickers—they are not the same job as a reach truck.
Pallet trucks, stackers and other warehouse equipment
Lighter equipment is enough for floor moves and short stacking.
- CBD — electric pallet truck
- CDD — stacker (walk / ride-on)
- CTD — related stacker / pallet variants
- JS / AWP — aerial work platforms
