The distinguishing characteristic of VNA trucks lies in their steering approach. Typically, operators steer VNA trucks solely during the transition between stacking aisles. Once within an aisle, these trucks are automatically guided through wire, rail, or radio guidance systems.
The term "man down" refers to equipment where the operator remains at ground level. Conversely, "man up" entails the operator within the cab ascending with the forks and load. This facilitates quicker and more efficient depositing or retrieval of loads or stock, raised to the required picking level.
