Carriage and Reach Assembly
Both the carriage and the reach assembly receive a lot of stress throughout a normal work shift. In order to make sure that the truck keeps production levels high, high durability of these things are certainly necessary. Yale reach devices are designed using heavy-duty components for long life and durability. The reach assembly is cushioned at the end of the stroke for better operator ergonomics and great durability. In addition, excellent visibility is provided with the optimal hose routing and the open carriage design.
The Reach Assembly Rear Carrier offers durability and rigidity by being mounted on angled load rollers in order to resist side to side forces. In addition, the stronger inner frame assembly helps to withstand shocks and vibration during handling load. The thick inner frame's side weldments have also been engineered for durability.
There are tapered roller bearings at reach mechanism pivot points which make up the Reach Arm Mechanism. These pivot points reduce the side to side motion and twisting of reach assembly during tough operations. To be able to lessen carriage twisting, dual reach cylinders are mounted. There are key pivot points that have grease fittings so as to guarantee longer service life by providing lubrication.
There are a variety of houses and wires routed through a flexible track to be able to decrease possible damage and binding. Another vital part is the carriage. There is Reduced Carriage Travel Speed provided with Carriage Extended option so as to stop high speed travel with the reach assembly extended. This helps to reduce stress on the reach mechanism itself.
Mast
A crucial part to both the truck's overall uptime and the operator's confidence come from the mast's rigidity and durability. This is especially true at the tall lift heights where the reach trucks operate. The mast needs to be rigid enough to withstand any twisting caused by any off-center loading problems or the truck's motion. The mast needs to be sure it is able to rise and lower in a smooth way with minimum consumption of power.
