Entry Level Electric Sideloader for Longload Handling
The HUBTEX BasiX range is designed for businesses that need a practical, economical and efficient solution for handling long, bulky or awkward loads. Featuring the DS 30 and DQ 30 E models, the BasiX series provides the benefits of electric multidirectional handling in an entry-level format, making it ideal for light to medium duty applications across both indoor and outdoor environments.
With lift heights of up to 7.5 metres and load capacities of up to 3 tonnes, the BasiX range is well suited to operations that need reliable handling performance without the requirement for a fully customised multidirectional sideloader.

Features of the BasiX
Three Wheel Chassis
The HUBTEX BasiX range is built on a compact three-wheel chassis designed to provide flexible handling across a variety of working environments. Combined with elastic tyres, the chassis is suitable for many common industrial floor surfaces, making the truck a practical option for businesses operating across both indoor and outdoor areas.
Cross Seat Cab
The cross seat cab offers a comfortable seated operating position with improved visibility in the main direction of travel. This is the first HUBTEX truck design without a mast side cab column, helping reduce visual obstructions for the operator.
Battery Exchange
The BasiX range is typically used in applications with lower operating hours, meaning frequent battery changes are not usually required. However, when a battery exchange is needed, the process has been designed to be straightforward and practical.
Rail Guidance
For businesses looking to use the BasiX range in narrow aisle racking systems, guide rollers can be fitted to support accurate and controlled travel through the aisle. This helps operators maintain correct positioning while improving safety and consistency in restricted warehouse layouts.
