Reach Trucks are designed predominantly for warehouse operations. They offer maximum lift height with excellent manoeuvrability.
The name takes influence from the machine’s ability to ‘reach’ out further than its stabilising legs; this makes it easy to reach into racking, and allows the truck to lift up to great heights in very tight working environments.
Reach trucks are well suited for indoor use, but not particularly ideal for use outdoors as its low under-carriage clearance can cause issues, especially on uneven outdoor surfaces.
