Engineered for Safety
Yale has a great history for providing safe lift trucks that are suitable for a variety of applications. The ability to produce and engineer models for enhanced safety comes from the new technology that is available in the company's experience and the material handling business.
Yale likes to incorporate new technology that is available into their latest designs. Several of the new technologies which are available are initially applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through durability testing and functionality. The company performs many reliability development and controlled field tests so as to make sure that their products are very safe.
Some of Yale's new designs and technology that has been integrated as standard features for their fleet so as to improve overall safety consist of the following:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
The operator compartment has been engineered with ergonomics in mind, utilizing state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids exhaustion and heavy repetitive motions. These extra comforts help to increase overall efficiency.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
Adjustable operator controls enable the operators to choose the positioning of their necessary controls. This helps make the machine user friendly, regardless of who is utilizing it. Before beginning their shift, the operator can make sure she or he is as comfortable as she or he can be.
Operator Presence System
The Operator Presence System prevents the hydraulic system operation from being used if the operator is not in the right operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on internal combustion engine truck units.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The LPG tank has a drop down design that brings it out from the vehicle's center to the natural handling position of the operator which makes it way easier to change.
