This download has one reach truck block: a 1,400 kg reach truck with a 2400 mm closed mast, drawn with its turning radius. It comes in DWG and DXF with a plan and a side elevation in millimetres, as IND_REACH_TRUCK_PLAN and IND_REACH_TRUCK_ELEV.
Reach truck CAD block dimensions
The block follows the VDI data sheet of a typical 1,400 kg reach truck. It is 1270 mm wide and 1196 mm long to the fork face, and with 40 x 120 x 1150 mm forks that makes 2346 mm overall with the mast retracted. The closed mast is 2400 mm high, the overhead guard 2190 mm and the seat 960 mm. The wheel arms are 285 mm high and 1792 mm long, with 942 mm clear between them. The drive wheel is 343 mm and the load wheels 285 mm in diameter, on a 1410 mm wheelbase.
The forks are drawn 560 mm apart, while the sheet gives an adjustable 335 to 730 mm. The cab layout, the seat and the mast section are representative. These are the figures of one catalogue model, so check them with the truck you choose.
Reach truck turning radius in the plan
The mast reaches 622 mm forward along the wheel arms, and the advanced mast position is drawn as a hidden line in the plan. The 1613 mm turning radius (Wa) is drawn as a dashed arc on the M-CLRN clearance layer, centred on the load wheel axle, and the rear of the chassis follows that arc. That arc is what you compare with the aisle when the truck turns in to face the rack.
Using the reach truck block to check aisle width
A reach truck works in a narrower aisle than a counterbalanced truck because it carries the load between its wheel arms. The pallet racking block marks a 2800 mm open aisle, the upper value of the 2.7 to 2.8 m minimum given for standard reach trucks that handle Euro pallets by the narrow side. Place the reach truck in that aisle to see the margin, and take the final aisle width from the data sheet of the truck you buy. For picking at floor level, see the order picker block.
