Reach Assembly & Carriage
Both the reach assembly and the carriage receive lots of stress in a typical work shift. To be able to make certain that the truck keeps production levels high, high durability of these items are definitely needed. Yale reach mechanisms are engineered utilizing 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. What's more, superior visibility is provided with the open carriage design and the optimal hose routing.
The Reach Assembly Rear Carrier offers durability and rigidity by being mounted on angled load rollers in order to resist side to side forces. Additionally, the stronger inner frame assembly helps to withstand vibration and shocks during handling load. The thick inner frame's side weldments have also been engineered for durability.
The Reach Arm Mechanism is made up of tapered roller bearings at reach mechanism pivot points. The pivot points help to decrease the motion side to side and the twisting of the reach assembly during rough tasks. To be able to reduce carriage twisting, dual reach cylinders are mounted. There are major pivot points that have grease fittings so as to ensure longer service life by providing lubrication.
Routed through a flexible track in order to reduce possible binding and damage are a variety of wires and hoses. The carriage is one more important part. There is Reduced Carriage Travel Speed provided with Carriage Extended option in order to stop high speed travel with the reach assembly extended. This helps to lessen stress on the reach mechanism itself.
Mast
A crucial component to both the operator's confidence and the truck's overall uptime 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 very rigid to withstand any twisting caused by any off-center loading problems or the truck's motion. The mast should be sure it is able to lower and rise in a smooth manner with minimum power consumption.
