The forklifts need to offer excellent visibility, be highly maneuverable and as compact as possible. Lift truck operators who are working on a dock must step off of and onto their forklift for the duration of their shift. To be able to answer all of your horizontal transporting dock requirements, Yale features the MPE model.
Yale provides a single narrow reach or NR and a double reach or NDR model to operate in aisles from 8 to 10 feet wide. The narrow aisle units could help a business increase its storage ratio compared to its aisle width. Yale features best-in-class ergonomics with their equipment.
