Abstract (en)

A fork lift truck which has a mast 13 and a sub-frame 22 which moves up and down the mast is provided with a carriage 30 which is mounted for sideways movement relative to the sub-frame. The sideways movement is achieved by rams 40, 41 connected between the sub-frame 22 and the carriage 30 and located to either side of a central region to provide better visibility. The fork mounting is an integral unit to reduce the loss of lifting capacity resulting from add-on side shift arrangements.
