EKKO EB16EAS-189Li Lithium Straddle Stacker with Side-Shift — 4,400 lb Capacity, 189" Lift Height
The EKKO EB16EAS-189Li is a lithium-powered walkie straddle stacker combining the functionality of a forklift, reach truck, and walkie stacker in a single machine. Designed for contractors and warehouse professionals, it delivers a 4,400 lb load capacity with a 189" raised height and integrated side-shift capability for precision load placement. It is well-suited for loading docks, stock rooms, manufacturing floors, and warehousing environments where versatility and uptime are critical.
Unlike lead-acid alternatives, the 24V/210Ah lithium battery system provides consistent power output with reduced maintenance demands. The addition of side-shift, adjustable forks (8.7"–32.1"), and adjustable legs (39.8"–55.5") enables the EB16EAS-189Li to handle a wider range of pallet sizes and aisle configurations than fixed-geometry stackers.

Key Features & Benefits
Side-Shift Capability
The integrated side-shift function allows operators to laterally reposition the forks without repositioning the entire machine. This is critical on loading docks and in tight storage configurations where precise pallet alignment saves time and reduces product damage risk.
Lithium Battery Power (24V / 210Ah)
The 24V/210Ah lithium battery delivers consistent power throughout the charge cycle, unlike lead-acid batteries that taper off as they discharge. Lithium chemistry also eliminates watering and equalizing routines, reducing maintenance overhead on busy job sites and in warehouse operations.
Triple Mast with 189" Raise Height & 51.85" Free Lift
The triple mast configuration reaches 189" while the 51.85" free-lift stage allows the forks to raise to a usable height before the mast extends — essential for operations in buildings with low door headers or overhead obstructions. This combination gives contractors the vertical range needed for high-bay racking without sacrificing access flexibility.
Electric Power Steering (EPS)
EPS reduces operator fatigue during extended shift use by electronically assisting steering input. For contractors managing repetitive loading and unloading cycles, reduced physical effort translates directly to improved operator endurance and control accuracy.
Adjustable Forks and Legs
Forks adjust from 8.7" to 32.1" and straddle legs adjust from 39.8" to 55.5", accommodating a range of pallet widths and load configurations without swapping attachments. This makes the machine adaptable across different applications on the same site without downtime.
Steel Construction with Robotic Welding
The all-steel frame manufactured with robotic welding delivers consistent weld quality and structural integrity across the entire chassis. This construction approach is designed to withstand varied terrain, impact, and frequent directional changes inherent to active job site and warehouse use.
Curtis Instrument Controller with Ergonomic Handle and Controls
The Curtis Instrument Controller is an industry-recognized control platform that provides reliable motor management and diagnostics. Paired with ergonomic handle and controls, operators can work efficiently with intuitive machine response throughout the shift.
Common Applications
Loading and Unloading Trucks
The side-shift and 4,400 lb capacity make this stacker effective for trailer loading and unloading where precise lateral pallet positioning is required without repositioning the machine.
Loading Dock Operations
The free-lift mast allows forks to rise to dock-level heights before mast extension begins, enabling smooth transitions between dock floors and trailer beds without overhead clearance issues.
Stock Room Management
Adjustable legs and forks accommodate the varied pallet sizes typically found in stock room environments, while the compact straddle stacker form factor navigates tighter aisle configurations.
Manufacturing Floor Material Handling
The robust steel construction and AC drive motor are built to withstand the demanding terrain, directional changes, and usage intensity typical of active manufacturing floor environments.
Warehouse High-Bay Racking
With a 189" raised height and triple mast, the EB16EAS-189Li can service high-bay racking systems, placing and retrieving loads at heights exceeding 15 feet.
