URF is a very advanced model of narrow aisle truck which is outfitted with swivel-reach. The forks horizontally rotate 180 degrees to enable stacking to the front as well as on either side of the aisle. This truck could be used with wire guided operation in free-ranging operations all over the warehouse or in aisles as narrow as 1.5 meters. The method this forklift has been made allows optimum warehouse space utilization and the overall operation is faster and simpler as opposed to man-up operations. The power steering option, complete with mini steering wheel, fully adjustable fingertip and seat controls and the "floating" arm rest, all contribute to productive and comfortable operation.

The video-view applications allow the operator to visually check the load at every stage of the handling procedure while maintaining the "man-down" position for simple truck access.
