Designed for Safety
Yale has a great history for offering safe lift trucks that are suitable for a variety of uses. The ability to engineer and produce units for improved safety comes from the new technology that is available in the material handling business and the company's experience.
Yale likes to integrate new technology which is available into their latest designs. Some of the new technologies which are on the market are initially applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company performs various controlled field tests and reliability development so as to make sure that their products are really safe.
To be able to enhance overall safety, Yale has engineered and developed many new features, which have been integrated on a lot of models including:
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 ensure that the operator avoids heavy repetitive motions as well as fatigue. These extra comforts help to increase overall production.
Adjustable Operators Controls and Compartment
Having adjustable operator's controls and compartments enables the necessary controls to be able to be positioned in close proximity to a huge array of operators. This helps make the machinery user friendly, regardless of who is operating it. Before beginning their shift, the operator could make certain 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 operated if the operator is not in the correct operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on trucks that have IC engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The LPG tank has a drop down design that brings it out from the center of the vehicle to the natural handling position of the operator which makes it way easier to change.
