Advantages

• Electric power: The 24V Electric system delivers quiet, clean operation with no exhaust, making this NR040 ideal for indoor facilities and high-density warehousing. Electric Industrial Forklifts typically offer lower energy costs and fewer consumables than internal combustion units, helping reduce operating expenses over time.
• Stand-up, narrow aisle design: The stand-up operator compartment and compact chassis improve maneuverability in tight aisles, enabling quicker cycle times where space is at a premium. Operators can step on and off efficiently for frequent picks, which supports fast-paced order fulfillment and high pallet movement.
• 4,000 lb capacity: A solid 4,000 lb rating gives the Yale NR040 the muscle to handle a broad range of palletized loads, packaging types, and product weights common in distribution, manufacturing support, and retail DC environments.
• Triple-stage mast, 95" collapsed: The 95-inch collapsed height helps with low doorway thresholds and mezzanine access while still providing the vertical reach needed for multi-level racking. The triple mast format maintains visibility and stable lift characteristics as you elevate loads.
• 212" maximum lift height: With a top lift height of 212 inches, this reach truck can service higher rack positions, supporting better space utilization and deeper inventory profiles without expanding your building footprint.
• Four Way Hydraulics: Expanded hydraulic functionality supports fine control over lift, tilt, reach, and auxiliary functions. This improves accuracy when placing or retrieving pallets, particularly at height or in crowded bays.
• Side shift: Side shift offers lateral load positioning without moving the truck itself. This reduces the number of steering corrections required, shortens cycle time, and helps prevent rack or pallet damage by enabling precise alignment before final placement.
• Yale build quality: Yale is a trusted name in Industrial Forklifts, known for durable components, stable mast designs, and ergonomic operator stations that contribute to uptime and operator comfort during demanding shifts.
• Cost-effective acquisition: Priced at $9,875, this pre-owned Yale NR040 provides strong value for buyers seeking a reliable electric reach truck without the premium of a new purchase.

Applications

The Yale NR040 Electric Stand-Up Narrow Aisle Reach Truck is purpose-built for modern warehousing and distribution. Its combination of 4,000 lb capacity, triple mast, and side shift makes it a versatile choice across a range of industries and facilities where space, speed, and accuracy matter.

• Warehousing and distribution centers: Navigate tight aisles and tall racks while maintaining swift putaway and retrieval. The 212" lift height supports high-bay storage strategies.
• E-commerce and fulfillment: Quick on/off stand-up operation supports frequent picks and short travel distances between bays.
• Manufacturing support: Move work-in-process, raw materials, and finished goods efficiently from receiving to production lines and staging areas.
• Retail and wholesale logistics: Handle mixed SKU pallets and high-turn inventory where accurate slotting and fast turns are essential.
• Food and beverage storage: Electric power suits indoor environments that value clean operation and consistent performance around people and sensitive goods.
• Third-party logistics (3PL): Flexible, all-around performance to support multiple client profiles, variable loads, and evolving storage layouts.

Ownership Value

Choosing an Electric Industrial Forklift like the 2017 Yale NR040 can deliver concrete ownership advantages. Electric drive reduces fuel handling and emissions concerns, while modern electrical systems minimize daily maintenance compared to internal combustion counterparts. Energy costs are predictable, downtime is reduced with fewer fluids and filters to manage, and operators benefit from quiet, responsive controls that help maintain focus. Yale’s parts availability and service support are well-established, contributing to a stable lifecycle and smoother maintenance planning. The NR040’s 24 Volt Battery platform is common across many warehouse fleets, which simplifies charging infrastructure planning and can streamline fleet-level standardization. With a 4,000 lb capacity and the precision of Four Way Hydraulics and side shift, this reach truck supports careful load handling that helps protect product and racking—an often overlooked contributor to total cost of ownership.
