A lift device a base having at least two pivotal wheels and two pivotally-fixed wheels held in a forward-aligned orientation, a retractable lift mechanism, a platform coupled to and supported by a second end of the retractable lift mechanism, a steering system extending between the at least two pivotal wheels. The steering system includes a first knuckle, a second knuckle, a first tie rod having a first end pivotally coupled to the first knuckle and a second end pivotally coupled to a drag link, a second tie rod having a first end pivotally coupled to the second knuckle and a second end pivotally coupled to the drag link, and an electrical actuator extending along a first axis. The electrical actuator is coupled to the drag link so that movement of electrical actuator translates the drag link about a second axis offset from and parallel to the first axis.
