About new reach trucks

Typical range
- Capacities commonly 1 t to 1.5 t

- Aisle widths from about 2.7 m

Common questions
What is the difference between a reach truck and a counterbalance?
A counterbalance carries the load at the front and needs space at the side to turn. A reach truck extends its forks into the racking, so it works in much narrower aisles.
Do I need a special floor for a reach truck?
Reach trucks need a level, smooth floor and good lighting at height. Very tall stacking may also need guidance rails, a voice system or rack-end protection.
