Reach trucks
September 1st 2007

Still has replaced its reach trucks type FM with a completely new group of models designated FM-X. Six different loadbearing capacities ranging from 1.0 to 2.5 tonnes are available. The FM-X can be configured at the customer's option in construction kit form to suit the use. In addition drive-in, cold store and two slim versions are available. The entire driver's compartment unit (seat, footplate, pedals) can be hydraulically cushioned, Still says this reduces shocks and impacts from uneven terrain by 57%. Proportional adjustment of the seat and footplate, which can be equipped with an electrical fast version, is also available.

The driver's seat, which has individual weight and horizontal adjustment and an optional 15° tilting technique, makes it possible to view upwards and laterally past the lift frame without straining your neck. The multifunctional joystick enables activation of all the hydraulic functions without having to change grip.
