Toyota launches new narrow chassis reach truck
May 2006 - Toyota launches new narrow chassis reach truck
Toyota Industrial Equipment has enhanced its range of reach trucks with the launch of a new narrow chassis reach truck model.
The 7FBRE16N has been developed to meet users’ needs for a reach truck with a narrower chassis combined with lift heights of up to 8500mm and a rated capacity of 1600 kg.
The narrow 1120mm chassis makes the 7FBRE16N especially suitable for drive-in, drive-through racking and block stacking. The narrow chassis also makes it safer and easier for trucks to pass each other in the aisle.
The 7FBRE16N features an AC drive motor which improves acceleration and braking, as well as Toyota’s unique ProReach system which provides users with improved ergonomics, safety and productivity. 360˚ steering is standard on the truck, minimising the number of steering wheel turns required by the operator.
David Backx, Product Specialist, Toyota Industrial Equipment Europe, comments: “With the introduction of the 7FBRE16N, we have consolidated our range of reach trucks.
“Through Toyota’s commitment to ongoing product development, we are proud to offer a comprehensive range of reach trucks, with trucks suitable for every application. The 7FBRE16N is an exciting addition to the range, responding to the needs of customers who require narrow chassis reach trucks with higher lift heights.”
