CQE12R Reach Truck Model
The CQE12R is the lighter model in EP’s CQE12R and CQE15R series. It features an AC traction motor, electronic power steering, proportional hydraulic controls and lift heights of up to 5.5 metres, helping keep stacking smooth, controlled and precise in tighter spaces.
That makes it a sensible fit for warehouses that do not need high-bay performance, but still need the stability and layout of a proper reach truck.
For businesses around Morley, Bassendean and the surrounding Perth metro area, the CQE12R is well suited to lighter reach truck work in compact storage environments. It suits sites with regular pallet handling, tighter aisles and lower racking, where a larger machine would be more than the job requires.
Easy to handle and built for day-to-day warehouse use, it is a reliable option for businesses that want reach truck capability without stepping up to a heavier-duty model.
Compass Forklifts can supply the CQE12R for purchase, hire or lease, with finance options available if buying outright is not the right fit.

Everything you need to know about the CQE12R PRO reach truck
Got questions about the CQE12R? Here are some of the most commonly asked questions we get asked about this light reach truck.
What is the load capacity of the CQE12R?
The CQE12R has a rated load capacity of 1200 kg, making it suitable for lighter pallet handling and everyday warehouse stacking.
How high can the CQE12R lift?
The CQE12R has a maximum lift height of 5500 mm, or 5.5 metres.
This makes it an option for lower to mid-level racking where a larger high-bay reach truck is not required.
Is the CQE12R suitable for tight warehouse spaces?
Yes. The CQE12R is designed for easy operation in tighter warehouse environments. Its reach truck layout makes it a practical fit for compact storage areas, tighter aisles and sites where manoeuvrability matters through the day.
Does the CQE12R use electric power steering?
Yes. Electronic power steering comes as part of the CQE12R series setup.
This helps make the truck easier to handle, especially during regular stacking work in tighter spaces.
Why choose the CQE12R over a pallet stacker?
Choose the CQE12R when your site needs the stability, operator position and reach truck layout for racking work, rather than a simpler stacker-style machine. It is a better fit for warehouses that handle regular pallet movement into racking and need more controlled stacking than a basic pallet stacker can offer.
