Reach Forklifts
Pettibone Reach Forklifts
Forklifts
Differ from straight or vertical-mast forklifts in that they consist of a multiple- sectioned boom that can be lowered to pick up a load, and then raised and telescoped to the height of the working area where the load is placed. Empty pallets or containers to be replenished are retrieved in the opposite manner
they are designed for the rough-terrain environments found in construction sites. The machines are designed with large tires, four wheel drive, powershift transmissions with three forward and reverse speeds and multiple steering modes (two wheel, four wheel and crab). In addition, the vehicles frame can be tilted left or right to level the vehicle and its load. The boom is equipped with automatic fork-leveling, which keeps the load level to the ground when raising or lowering and extending or retracting the boom.
