The reach truck has a lift mast, movable along the straddle legs (11) by a conventional reach mechanism, and a battery (14) for operating the reach mechanism mounted in a container bridging the straddle legs and having end walls (17) which extend longitudinally of the straddle legs. The container is movable along the straddle legs between an open position and a stored position in which the battery is located beneath a cover (15) forming part of the body structure. For preventing movement of the battery container (13) transversely of the straddle legs (11) when in its stored position, track members (23) project downwardly from the cover means (15) internally of the end walls of the battery container and also serve to guide the battery container during its movement into its stored position. A standard DIN battery container can thus be used without the need for a mounting tray or feet on the container. <IMAGE> |
