TCM launches long-awaited reach truck - with class leading aisle width

TCM has unveiled its new ERT range of reach trucks - and boasts a class-leading aisle width. The ERT comes in three capacities 1400, 1600 and 2000kg and offers lift heights of up to 9750mm.

Comparison of aisle width specifications based on the 2000kg TCM reach truck handling a euro pallet on its short side showed the TCM to have a tighter aisle width requirement than 1600kg capacity BT, Linde, Jungheinrich and Atlet trucks.

Sales director, Mike Mills said: "TCM has always had a reputation for build quality, reliability and driver comfort. This reach truck will not disappoint. It is class-leading in key features like aisle width."

The large drivers cab has been ergonomically designed to offer levers and LCD dial display within comfortable reach. Additional legroom has been created with the decision by the ERT's specialist design team to mount the hand-brake next to the steering wheel. However, the aisle width required for safe use of the truck is class-leading

Mike Mills continued: "We're delighted with the build quality of the ERT. Whenever we go onto a customer site with a TCM demo counterbalance truck we always make the sale. TCM has always been a drivers' favourite. In this reach truck we now have a winning warehouse offering as well.

"The reach truck marketplace in Europe demands the highest standards and you have to keep design, build and models current. We have a winning truck here."

The ERT reach truck has latest technology including Logic control panels. The traction battery has a 5-year guarantee.

TCM has a wide range of diesel, gas and electric counterbalance trucks and has now started to launch a comprehensive line of warehouse trucks.
