EKKO ER15-189Li Walkie Reach Truck — 3,300 lb Capacity with 189" Lift Height
The EKKO ER15-189Li is a heavy-duty walkie reach truck that combines the functional versatility of a forklift, reach truck, and walkie stacker into a single machine. Built for contractors and warehouse professionals, it handles loading and unloading at truck bays, loading docks, stock rooms, manufacturing floors, and warehousing environments. With a 3,300 lb load capacity and a raised height of 189 inches (15.75 ft), it is engineered to meet the demands of high-bay storage and multi-level racking operations.
Unlike standard walkie stackers, the ER15-189Li adds a 19.7" reach distance and 64.2" free lift, allowing operators to place loads into racking without moving the entire machine and to lift freely before engaging the mast — capabilities that significantly expand its utility in tight or confined spaces. The inclusion of a lithium 24V/200Ah battery, integrated charger, and EPS electronic power steering further differentiates it from conventional lead-acid competitors.

Key Features & Benefits
19.7" Reach Distance with 64.2" Free Lift
The reach function allows the forks to extend independently of the mast, enabling operators to place or retrieve loads from racking without repositioning the entire machine. The free lift capability lets the forks rise to 64.2" before the mast begins to extend, making the machine practical in facilities with overhead obstructions or low-clearance dock areas.
24V / 200Ah Lithium Battery — Included
The lithium battery delivers consistent power output throughout the entire charge cycle, unlike lead-acid batteries that lose performance as they discharge. Both the battery and charger are included, reducing upfront procurement complexity and ensuring the machine is ready to deploy immediately upon delivery.
EPS Electronic Power Steering
Electronic power steering reduces operator fatigue during extended shifts, particularly during repeated maneuvering in tight aisles or around loading dock equipment. It provides responsive, consistent steering effort regardless of load weight or surface conditions.
Curtis Instrument Controller
The Curtis controller is an industry-recognized platform used across professional-grade electric material handling equipment. It provides precise management of drive and lift motor functions, supporting reliable performance across varied operating conditions.
Side Shift and Tilt
Side shift allows lateral fork adjustment without moving the machine, enabling accurate pallet placement in racking. Tilt provides fork angle adjustment for secure load handling and precise positioning when loading or unloading uneven surfaces.
Steel Construction with Robotic Welding
The frame is fabricated from high-quality steel using robotic welding processes, producing consistent, high-strength weld joints throughout the structure. This construction approach is designed to withstand terrain variation, directional changes, and repeated impact loads across demanding job site and warehouse applications.
Polyurethane Wheels
Polyurethane wheels offer durability on hard warehouse and dock flooring surfaces while resisting wear from repeated use. They are well-suited for smooth concrete, tile, and sealed warehouse floor environments common in manufacturing and distribution settings.
Ergonomic Handle and Controls with Lift Control Valve
The ergonomic handle and control layout is designed to reduce operator strain during extended operation. The lift control valve provides smooth, controlled hydraulic lift operation for precise load placement.
Common Applications
Loading and Unloading Trucks
The ER15-189Li is designed for truck loading and unloading operations, where a compact, maneuverable walkie reach truck can move loads efficiently between truck beds and staging areas without requiring a full sit-down forklift.
Loading Dock Operations
At loading docks, the machine's reach and free lift functions allow operators to handle tall pallet stacks and position loads accurately within the dock area, even in confined working footprints.
Stock Room and Warehousing
With a 189" raised height and 19.7" reach distance, the ER15-189Li is well-suited for high-bay racking environments where pallets must be placed or retrieved from elevated shelf positions without a full-size ride-on reach truck.
Manufacturing Floors
On manufacturing floors where space is limited and traffic lanes are shared with personnel and equipment, the walkie configuration provides a smaller footprint than sit-down forklifts while still handling 3,300 lb loads.
Compatible Materials
- Standard wood pallets
- Plastic pallets
- Smooth concrete warehouse flooring
- Sealed hard flooring surfaces
- Loading dock floors and ramps (hard surface)
