About Doosan:

Doosan Industrial Vehicle is a global manufacturer of quality forklifts and warehouse equipment with more than 50 years’ experience creating award-winning forklifts. With a presence in more than 90 countries, we provide 112 different product models ranging from 3,000 lb. to 55,000 lb. capacities. Doosan offers comprehensive solutions for your material handling needs.

Simply Bold. These two words have a lot of meaning behind them, especially when it comes to our latest product – the 9 Series Cushion Tire Trucks.

This forklift simply gets the job done. With an easy to enter 3-point entry system, tilting and telescopic steering column, and ergonomically positioned hydraulics, this lift truck and your operator will become a dynamic duo.

When it comes to safety, this is our safest lift truck yet. Our new mast assembly now creates 27% improved visibility. A clear, digital display gives pertinent details in real time. Our Operator Sensing System (OSS) automatically engages important safety functions like stopping truck movement when the forklift operator steps off the truck, warning the operator to fasten the seat belt before operating, and ensuring the directional lever is in neutral to start the truck. The new 9-Series cushion tire forklifts have a fitted rubber floor mat to provide maximum comfort, as well as shock and sound absorption benefits.

In its boldness, we have a brand-new counterweight design that increases air flow through the radiator for added cooling capacity. Its compact design tightens the turn radius for better agility in close confines. The sleek new design sets the 9-Series miles ahead of the competition.

And in our boldest move yet, the 9 Series Cushion Tire Forklifts can save customers an average of more than $3,600.00 over five years on brakes, steer axle maintenance and planned oil changes. Doosan proudly builds on our tradition of boosting your bottom line AND offering superior standard features others consider optional.

With 185 authorized dealer locations, we can guarantee there is a dealer and a great deal near you.

While visiting our dealer in Massachusetts, Lift Truck Parts & Service, we had the opportunity to sit down with Aaron Adelung, Service Manager of The Joseph Freedman Company Inc., and talk with him about how his Doosan’s deliver.

Tell me about your company?

The Joseph Freedman Company, Inc., was founded in 1891 in Springfield, Massachusetts by Joseph Freedman, great grandfather of the current company president, John D. Freedman. The company has built a reputation for being one of the pioneering leaders in industrial scrap metal recycling, specializing in aluminum, copper, nickel alloys and aircraft scrap.

What applications do you most use the Doosan forklifts?

Our aerospace application uses the Doosan forklifts prominently because the control required demands rotating side shifters. The forklifts rotate over the tops of bins and sorting tables, as well as on the backend once the metal is separated to stack and relocate the material.

Tell me a little more about the aerospace application and how the trucks run?

The trucks run non-stop in this facility from 6 AM to 5 PM, with at least two operators for each truck. If one needs to do another operation, the second one can jump right in. The oil that coats the material is slick, and there is considerable greasy build up. This oil makes this application tough and is very hard on any forklift. We have tried several different brands of forklifts, but the Doosan is the only one that has been able to handle the aerospace application.

What do you like about your Doosan?

They are durable; we have not had any problems with ours so far. Some of the chemicals that come out of the materials we scrap can do severe damage, and the Doosan’s are the only ones that have held up from the harshness of the chemicals. We currently have five Doosan’s, and I haven’t found anything that I don’t like about the Doosan forklift. I also appreciate my partnership with Lift Truck Parts and Service. They are always quick to respond if we need repairs on any of our trucks. If they don’t have a part right away, they work to get it to us by the next day.
