Yale

Carriage and Reach Assembly
In a typical work shift, both the carriage and the reach assembly receive a huge amount of stress. High durability of these items is absolutely required to be able to make sure that the truck keeps production levels high. Yale reach mechanisms are engineered 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, superior visibility is provided with the optimal hose routing and the open carriage design.

The Reach Assembly Rear Carrier provides rigidity and durability by being mounted on angled load rollers in order to resist side to side forces. Additionally, the stronger inner frame assembly helps to endure shocks and vibration while load handling. The side weldments on the thick inner frame have also been designed for durability.

The Reach Arm Mechanism is made up of tapered roller bearings at reach mechanism pivot points. The pivot points help to reduce 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 which have grease fittings so as to guarantee longer service life by providing lubrication.

There are various houses and wires routed through a flexible track in order to reduce possible binding and damage. Another vital component is the carriage. There is Reduced Carriage Travel Speed offered with Carriage Extended option in order to prevent high speed travel with the reach assembly extended. This helps to reduce stress on the reach mechanism itself.

Mast
The mast's durability and rigidity are vital to both the operator's confidence and the truck's overall uptime. This is moreso when the reach truck is being operated at tall lift heights. The mast needs to be very rigid to endure 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 way with the least consumption of power.
