The Bobcat B20SU-9 is a 4,000 lb stand-up rider forklift and the top of Bobcat’s narrow-aisle stand-up line. Its 36V electric platform shares the same maintenance program as the lighter B15SU-9 and B18SU-9.
At 111.5 in overall length and a 57.5 in turning radius, it trades a little of the family’s tight maneuverability for the extra capacity, while staying narrow enough for standard rack-aisle distribution work.
Standing operation keeps the driver moving fast through repetitive short-run pallet work, and cushion tires keep the ride low and stable on smooth concrete.
Choose the B20SU-9 when your heaviest recurring load runs close to two tons and your building runs narrow-aisle racking. Tell us your aisle width and load, and we will confirm the fit.

B20SU-9 FAQs
Is the B20SU-9 the top of Bobcat's stand-up rider lineup?
Yes, at 4,000 lb it is the highest capacity in this narrow-aisle stand-up family. Heavier loads call for a seated counterbalance or reach truck instead.
How does the B20SU-9 compare to the B15SU-9 and B18SU-9?
All three share the same 36V platform, 24 in load center, and cushion tires. The B20SU-9 carries the most capacity at 4,000 lb, on the longest frame (111.5 in) and widest turning radius (57.5 in) of the three.
