Used Jungheinrich Narrow Aisle Forklifts Kent

The following add-ons are helpful for narrow aisle lift trucks:
Side shift: The side shift option permits the lateral movement of the load without having to move the truck. This enables loads to be accurately positioned.

Tilt mast: The optional tilt mast allows the forks to shift both backwards and forwards. This is perfect in situations where loads aren't completely level. To gain more stability while transporting a truck which is loaded, the mast can be tilted backwards.

Extendable forks: Extendable forks help the reach of a lift truck to allow for the stacking of pallets one in front of the other. This is called double deep loading.

Operator platforms: Several NA lift trucks have operator platforms which could lower and raise the operator while at the same time raising and lowering the lift truck's forks. This provides optimum visibility and control while handling loads at heights of 6 to 9 meters.

Lift Truck on a Ramp
Drivers have to be well taught and must be tested and licensed. It is really essential for anybody operating a lift truck to be very educated regarding safety concerns and guidelines. Drivers have to understand how to make adjustments in cases where the load weight changes the center of gravity or on uneven surfaces. Safety guidelines include the safe use of a forklift on a ramp, that is frequently occurring because the operator would usually have to drive up and down ramps in order to unload and load containers.

2 Drive the forklift in reverse while moving up an incline on a ramp while not carrying a load.

4 Tilt the forks slightly back to shift the center of the load to the equipment's front, when moving up or down a ramp while carrying a load.
5 To make the load more stable, drive forward up a ramp when carrying a load.
