The receiving and shipping docks are among the most active areas of any warehouse. These are areas that can also become pretty congested. The lift trucks should provide excellent visibility, be extremely maneuverable and as compact as possible. Forklift operators who are working on a dock should step off of and onto their lift truck for the duration of their shift. To be able to solve all of your horizontal transporting dock requirements, Yale spotlights the MPE model.

This features different configurations for control handle and stance options.
