Can you provide more detail for this phrase "will require gull wings 24 inches (12 inches on either side), capable of being operated by one person," that appears in the solicitation for the Battery operated order picker. Are the gull wings merely an extension of the operator platform so it is safer to operate in a 72" aisle or are they something totally different? Does the capable of operation by one person refer to operating the overall truck or to operating the gull wings? Answer: 1. "gull wings" are referred to the extensions on the 2 sides of the unit.
