Choosing the right forklift mast is essential for safety and performance. At Pollies Forklifts, we help Edmonton businesses find the best equipment for their operations, including understanding the difference between a full free lift mast and a standard mast.
A standard mast begins lifting both the forks and the mast immediately. It’s ideal for outdoor use, open warehouses, or locations without height restrictions. If you don’t operate in tight spaces or under low ceilings, a standard mast is cost-effective and simple.
A full free lift mast, however, allows the forks to rise without the mast extending. This is perfect for indoor operations, trailers, containers, or warehouses with low overhead clearance. It helps prevent ceiling damage and ensures smoother operation in tight vertical spaces.
Pollies Forklifts offers a wide range of forklifts with both mast types from trusted brands like Toyota, HELI, CAT, Mitsubishi, Raymond, Crown, Yale, and Hyster.
