Pedestrian stacker forklifts usually run on battery power and are also known as “walkie reach forklifts,” “reach trucks,” and “walkie stackers.” They function similarly to pallet jacks but raise loads much higher to work among with tall warehouse shelves.
Read More (About Pedestrian Stacker Forklifts)A pedestrian stacker forklift, variously known as a “walkie reach,” “reach truck,” “walkie stacker,” and other names, is similar to a pallet jack but has a mast capable of raising a load much higher off the ground so as to place and retrieve them from tall warehouse shelving systems. Pedestrian stacker lift capacities generally range from around 1,134 to 2,495 kilograms (2,500 to 5,500 pounds).
Most pedestrian stackers have a tiller arm or a pump-type bar for a steering mechanism. In some cases, these arms or bars are accessible from the side of the machine to allow operators to stand wherever is safest in relation to their surroundings. While some models are designed for seated operation, most require the operator to walk along with the machine as their name implies.
Pedestrian stackers typically run on electric battery power and have front legs that extend out in front of them with rollers on the tips to provide sufficient support loads when elevated. Counterbalanced models, meanwhile, have rear ballast weights instead of front legs. Such models have a much smaller footprint than standard models, and can therefore fit into narrower aisles.
