Abstract: A high-lift order picking industrial truck is equipped with a driver's stand which can be moved up and down together with a load picking device on a lifting framework. At least one operating console is disposed in the area of the driver's stand and is designed as a "standing seat" which allows the operator to face towards the load side. The controls of the operating console are disposed at the sides of the seat of the operating console. A folding seat is disposed under the operating console and the operating console forms the backrest for the folding seat.
