On dit qu'un montant élévateur est à levée libre totale lorsque le tablier porte fourche peut s'élever jusqu'au sommet du montant fixe avant que ne démarre le mouvement du montant mobile, donc que n'augmente la hauteur hors tout de l'appareil. L'obtention d'une levée libre totale exige l'utilisation de deux vérins au moins, l'un pour l'élévation du tablier porte fourche et l'autre pour l'élévation du montant mobile. Ces deux vérins peuvent être séparés ou emboîtés l'un dans l'autre. 1, record 2, French, - lev%C3%A9e%20libre%20totale

The mast assembly of the fork truck consists of a steel upright assembly and hydraulic cylinders to provide the lifting capability of the fork truck. The mast consists of stationary outer channels and telescoping inner channels which provide for high lifting capabilities while permitting a low collapsed height. ... Multiple-stage masts increase mast complexity and require more energy than a low freelift design. The most economical mast for general purpose storage and in-plant transportation is a two-stage mast with low freelift. 1, record 3, English, - low%20freelift
