Turret truck's versatility enhances productivity

This issue's 'Product Focus' highlights recent additions to the forklift market as shown at press events and trade shows and from manufacturer's information crossing our editors' desks.

Available in 3,000 and 4,000 lb lift capacities, these operator-up turret trucks for very narrow aisle operations boost productivity through versatility. The NTA models lift to over 40 ft, work in rail or wire guided aisles as narrow as 66 in., and handle a variety of loads.

The trucks' operator compartment is designed for either stand-up or sit-down operation. With its ergonomic design, the operator's workstation leads to more time in the truck and more loads handled per work cycle.

Truck features that increase comfort and productivity include a pressure sensitive "operator in the truck" switch, optimally positioned steering wheel, and butterfly control handles (for drive speed, forward/reverse, and hydraulic actuation). Operators can also adjust their console for comfort.

Forks raise, lower, pivot, and traverse smoothly on a robust auxiliary mast and heavy duty carriage so that loads are easily picked up from either side, on the floor, or in racks.
