MS-15 vs MS-15S
Two sizes of the same frame. The difference that decides the order is usually aisle width or the weight of a full pallet — not the number on the plate.

Choose MS-15 when
Four-wheel, 1.5 t. The most common single unit in the range. Handles a loaded euro pallet at 4.5 m without the tail becoming twitchy.
The building is the constraint: floor loading, door width, or a mezzanine that will not take the heavier chassis. MS-15 is also the cheaper unit, so a fleet that never loads to the plate should not pay for the frame it does not use.
MS-15 specificationChoose MS-15S when
Same capacity as MS-15, different body. Bought when a fleet wants a visual distinction between two duty areas, or when the operator prefers the shorter counterweight.
The load is the constraint: pallets that arrive over-weight, attachments that shift the centre of gravity forward, or a mast tall enough that residual capacity falls away at height. Buying one size up is cheaper than a second handling step.
MS-15S specificationNot sure which one
Send the aisle width, the load and the lift height. We answer with the model and the reason, not both brochures.
