Description
-The EKKO EK25TLP is a four-wheel 5,000 lb capacity LPG forklift built for sustained material handling in warehousing, distribution, and indoor manufacturing. Power comes from a 2.4L Kubota or PSI engine paired with a propane fuel system, delivering 63 HP at 2,700 rpm while meeting Tier 4 EPA and CARB 4 emissions standards — the configuration most often specified for facilities that need internal-combustion lift capability without diesel exhaust.
The truck is rated at a 24-inch load center with a 185-inch maximum lift height and 43.7-inch free lift, placing it inside the operational envelope of standard pallet rack and dock work. Service weight is 8,465 lb; overall length without forks measures 99.6 inches and overall width is 45.2 inches — usable in most conventional warehouse aisles. Maximum travel speed reaches 10.6 mph loaded and 11.8 mph unloaded.
EKKO has engineered the operator station for full-shift work. The overhead guard is enlarged and heightened, with large arc-shaped front legs that widen the field of view from the seat. The seat is semi-suspension; the steering wheel is small-diameter; direction changes are electro-hydraulic; and an automobile-style double combined switch consolidates lights and turn signals into the kind of layout truck operators are already familiar with. Cushion connections and a whole-suspension cab dampen the vibration a forklift transmits through eight hours of repetitive cycles.
The lifting system carries a lowering damping device internal to the mast, which reduces shock and vibration during fork descent — the audible bang when loads land hard, and the wear that bang transmits into the carriage and chains. The hydraulic system is tuned for fuel efficiency: matched flow at part-load reduces parasitic loss when the operator is positioning rather than lifting. A small turning radius makes lane-to-lane and dock-to-rack moves quick without three-point maneuvering.
Standard equipment includes a Cascade® Side Shift for fork-to-pallet alignment without driving in, and a Shimadzu® 4-Way Valve pre-plumbed for attachment work — both named components from established hydraulics suppliers, mounted at the factory rather than retrofitted by the dealer.
EKKO Lifts manufactures the EK25TLP at its facility in Pomona, California, and backs it with the EKKO Advantage Warranty: three-year frame, fork, and mast coverage (or 6,000 hours, whichever comes first) and two-year engine coverage (or 4,000 hours). Forklift King is an authorized EKKO Lifts dealer and handles US delivery, freight scheduling, and post-sale support.
Features

Warranty
-The EK25TLP is covered by the EKKO Advantage Warranty:
- Frame, fork, and mast: 3 years or 6,000 hours, whichever comes first

FAQ
-Is this forklift rated for indoor use?
The EK25TLP runs on LPG (propane), which is commonly approved for indoor warehouse work where diesel is restricted, provided ventilation meets local code. Confirm requirements with your facility’s safety officer or the authority having jurisdiction.
What engine does the EK25TLP come with — Kubota or PSI?
The supplier offers the EK25TLP with either a Kubota or a PSI 2.4L engine; the specific build supplied may vary. Contact us to confirm engine variant before order.
Can I run attachments on this forklift?
Yes. The truck ships with a Shimadzu® 4-Way Valve pre-plumbed, which provides the hydraulic ports for common attachments such as clamps, push-pulls, and rotators. Attachment compatibility depends on the attachment manufacturer’s hydraulic and mounting specs.
What tires does it use, and are they suitable for outdoor yards?
Solid pneumatic tires — 7.00-12-12PR drive wheels and 6.00-9-10PR steer wheels. Solid pneumatic tires handle smooth concrete and well-maintained outdoor surfaces; rough or muddy yard work calls for a true rough-terrain forklift.
How is it delivered?
The EK25TLP ships by LTL freight from the US. Contact us for freight scheduling, liftgate availability, and delivery details specific to your destination.
