Increase your storage Double your reach- Stacker | Sit-on with telescopic forks
- 1.2 Tonnes
- 24 Volts
- AC-Power
AXiA sit-on stackers are a flexible and cost-effective choice for stacking and internal transport in warehousing, manufacturing, and anywhere else safe, productive stacking is required. Platform stackers are more commonly used for these tasks but typically have lower maximum lift heights.
AXiA XL models with telescopic forks enable more flexible handling of long loads and work with double deep racking setups. Double deep racking stores four pallets between aisles, reducing storage cost per square meter by up to 17% and increasing pallet locations by 25–30%.
Many businesses will also use reach trucks for stacking tasks where even a light reach truck may be over-specified for the job. If the work requires lifting to 7 m or less, the AXiA sit-on stacker makes for an excellent low-cost alternative.

Key Features

Mini steering wheel with floating armrest
This ergonomically adjustable control setup makes operating far more comfortable for the driver during long shifts. This not only minimises fatigue, keeping them more focused and productive, but reduces the risk of RSI and other strains in the neck and shoulders, a common cause of driver absence which comes with related costs.

Enhanced Stability System (ESS)
As well as the high-stability chassis design, automatic systems are in place additional to automatically reduce acceleration during sharper turns and reduce drive speed when forks are above 1.2 m.

Convenient charging
An external battery plug allows for easy charging of Lead-acid batteries without the need to unplug the internal connection. For safety, the truck is unable to operate while plugged in. (Option)

Telescopic forks
Not only do these allow for a double deep stacking set up in the warehouse, but they can be extended to carry two pallets at a time or long goods. They also allow for further reach across lorry beds and conveyors, meaning loading and unloading can be carried out from one side.

Li-ion battery
This option allows for quick charging, while minimising maintenance - avoiding the need for costly extra batteries and time-consuming changeovers. (Option).

360° Steering
Allows smooth turning without the 'pause' of a 3-point turn. It not only saves time in each and every turn - which adds up over the length of a shift - but puts less force on the load. This makes for quicker, safer, and more stable operation. (Option)
Top Features

Intelligent Cornering System
The truck senses the angle of a turn and reduces speed early for maximum stability and accurate, positive cornering.
Automatic Speed Reduction
Drive speed is automatically limited when forks are above 1.2 m to allow higher capacities above that height.

360-degree steering
The operator can keep the truck in constant motion - saving seconds on every turn. (Option)
Built-in Li-ion battery
Fast opportune charging removes the need for extra batteries and allows 24/7 operation. (Junior chassis only) (Option)

Enhanced Stability System (ESS)
4-point chassis for maximum stability, drive speed is reduced when forks are lifted, and acceleration is reduced when steering angle exceeds 45 degrees.

Hydraulic telescopic forks
Speed regulated for greater precision and safer operation.
More Features
High-efficiency regenerative braking
This gives more effective control and reduces brake wear.

Intelligent Cornering System
The truck senses the angle of a turn and reduces speed early for maximum stability and accurate, positive cornering.

Powerful AC drive motor
High torque for greater efficiency. No carbon brushes mean lower servicing requirements.
Automatic Speed Reduction
Drive speed is automatically limited when forks are above 1.2 m to allow higher capacities above that height.
Built-in Li-ion battery
Fast opportune charging removes the need for extra batteries and allows 24/7 operation. (Junior chassis only) (Option)
Convenient charging
An extra battery plug on the outside of the truck allows for easy charging without needing to disconnect the internal battery plug. (Lead acid batteries) (Option)
Combi controller lift system
Fingertip control for speed regulated lifting and proportional valve for lowering.

Enhanced Stability System (ESS)
4-point chassis for maximum stability, drive speed is reduced when forks are lifted, and acceleration is reduced when steering angle exceeds 45 degrees.
Level Assistance System
Automatically detects the operator's intention and automatically stops when the forks are at precisely the right level. (Option)
Laser positioning guide
Aligning the red laser line with the centre of the pallet pocket allows the driver to quickly ensure the forks are in the desired position. (Option)

Hydraulic telescopic forks
Speed regulated for greater precision and safer operation.

Longer reach
Telescopic forks also allow for handling of longer goods and greater reach across lorry beds.
Wide Straddle Legs
These feature single wheels as standard with tandem wheels as an option. 750 mm width standard, 950 mm option.

Robust, clear view mast
Optimised design means excellent visibility of the forks and load.
Exceptionally smooth 'no knock' transition between mast stages
Vulkollan dampers ensure quieter movement over the lift range.
Smooth landing of the fork carriage
Hydraulic attenuation in the free-lift cylinder makes this much quieter.
Robust chassis
Built for intensive operations, with great inherent strength and high residual capacities. Designed to enclose the operator within for extra safety.

Strong battery lock
Simple and safe. Battery lock can only be unlocked when battery plug is disconnected. Battery plug can only be reconnected if battery is locked.
Excellent ground clearance
Easy and safe handling on loading docks and ramps.
RapidAccess features
These allow quick and easy entry to all areas for checks and maintenance.
Waterproof wiring and connectors
Sealed compartment prevents system failure and corrosion from water and dust.

Overhead guard pillars
Protection for the operator while still offering excellent visibility.

Comfortable seat
Adjustable so drivers can find their ideal working position for less fatigue over long shifts.
Plenty of storage space
Storage for on-board essentials, putting clipboard, mobile phone, drinks bottle and pen all within easy reach.

Ultra-low step height
Operators stay more productive throughout shifts thanks to easy on/off access.
Temperature controlled fans
Low noise for a more comfortable working environment.
Adjustable floor height
More adaptable working position to suit a wide range of operator heights. (Option)

360-degree steering
The operator can keep the truck in constant motion - saving seconds on every turn. (Option)

Mini steering wheel with floating armrest
Fully ergonomically adjustable, its unique design allows the operator to adopt a more relaxed and natural driving position This reduces arm and shoulder strain and lowers the risk of RSI.
Dynamic Power Steering
Smooth, precise control with minimum effort offering maximum comfort and stability at top speed.
Features In Detail
Helps prevent dangerously fast cornering using intelligent speed reduction from the moment the truck enters the turn, rather than kicking in harshly midway.

Sensing the angle of a turn, speed is dynamically reduced at the start of and throughout the turn for smoother, safer, and more consistent cornering.
