Hyundai Reach Forklift Phoenix

Reach Forklifts

Space is usually at a premium in nearly all distribution centers or warehouse settings. The less space needed for aisles in which to operate machinery, the more room overall you will have for the storage of products and goods. Hence, specialized machine has been designed for operating in really narrow aisles to be able to maximize efficiency and space.



Reach Trucks

A reach forklift is a specialized piece of machine which has a mast that extends away from the body of the forklift. It normally is attached with a scissor mechanism. When the scissor is compacted or drawn in, the forklift becomes much narrower that the regular forklift.



Operator Position

Reach trucks are designed so the driver can stand while in operation of the machinery. This is a contrast to the typical forklift where the driver is normally sitting. The standing operation area lessens the amount of room needed for the compartment of the driver, enabling the machine to achieve an even smaller profile overall.



Space Saving

With a reach truck, aisles could be made as narrow as 7 feet. Nearly all regular forklifts need a minimum aisle space of roughly 11 feet; hence, using a reach truck gives roughly a savings of 5 feet on each and every aisle. When the warehouse is leased by the square foot basis, this is a considerable amount of space.



Unique Controls

A reach truck is normally steered using a rotating lever that is located on a platform beside the operator. There is a different lever utilized to control the mast and for extending the mast and also to control forward and reverse. These controls are somewhat different than typical forklift controls.



Load Capacity

Usually, the reach truck's load capacity is less than that of a standard lift truck, depending on the type. This is largely because of the machine's narrow design, that can cause a very high center of gravity. When the load is lifted and the mast is fully extended, this is particularly true.
