Backbone for Reach and Standup Counterbalance Trucks – First Quality Forklift Training LLC
For Reach Trucks and Stand-up Counterbalance Trucks
The Backbone ™ is a safety device for reach trucks and stand-up counterbalanced trucks to protect operators against accidental rear-ward collisions with racking systems that may cause serious injury without reducing overhead guard protective capability. The Backbone™ is installed on a reach truck by simply clamping to the overhead guard from the top and bolting to the reach truck frame at the bottom by drilling small holes. No welding required. Additional padding can be strapped onto the back of the unit for operator comfort.
The Backbone for Reach and Standup Counterbalance Trucks enhances safety and productivity in the workplace.
Note: The Backbone™ is fully tested to meet all required ASME and ANSI Standards. The Backbone™ was tested in accordance with ANSI B56.1. It was found to meet the requirement to withstand the impact of a fully loaded truck traveling 1.6 km/h (approx. 1 mph).
