Designed for Safety
Yale has a great history for offering safe lift trucks which are suitable for a variety of uses. The ability to engineer and make units for better safety comes from the new technology that is available in the material handling business and the company's experience.
In their newest designs, Yale has started incorporating newly available technologies. Some of the new technologies which are on the market are first applied to forklift trucks and then later proven further through durability testing and functionality. The company performs many controlled field tests and reliability development so as to make sure that their products are very safe.
In order to enhance overall safety, Yale has engineered and developed a lot of new features, which have been integrated on many models like:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
The ergonomics within the operator compartment along with the controls are made with state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to ensure that the operator avoids exhaustion and heavy repetitive motions. These added comforts help to increase overall productivity.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
Adjustable operator controls enable the operators to choose the positioning of their necessary controls. This helps make the equipment user friendly, regardless of who is utilizing it. Prior to starting their shift, the operator could make certain he or she is as comfortable as possible.
Operator Presence System
The Operator Presence System prevents the hydraulic system operation from being used if the operator is not in the correct operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on trucks that have internal combustion engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The LPG tank has a drop down design which brings it out from the vehicle's center to the natural handling position of the operator which makes it way easier to change.
