A power shifted transmission for a stand up series, material handling, fork lift truck is described in this paper. Compactness was a stringent design requirement. The design approach followed utilizes a transverse engine mounting to conserve on overall length. The transmission control system is discussed, including the method of obtaining desired inching control characteristics.
