Engineered for Safety
Yale is famous for offering safe lift trucks which are flexible and adaptable for many different applications and tasks. The ability to produce and design units for better safety comes from the new technology that is available in the company's experience and the material handling industry.
Yale likes to incorporate new technology which is available into their latest designs. Some of the new technologies that are on the market are initially applied to forklift trucks and then later proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company conducts various controlled field tests and reliability development in order to ensure their products are really safe.
So as to improve overall safety, Yale has designed and developed lots of new features, which have been incorporated on many models including:
Operator Compartment Controls and Ergonomics
The operator compartment has been designed with ergonomics in mind, utilizing state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids fatigue and heavy repetitive motions. These extra comforts help to increase overall productivity.
Adjustable Operators Controls and Compartment
Having adjustable operator's controls and compartments enables the necessary controls to be able to be positioned near a huge range of operators. This helps make the machine user friendly, regardless of who is using it. Before starting their shift, the operator can make sure she or he 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 right operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on trucks that have IC engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The drop-down design brings the LPG tank out from the protected center of the truck and down to the natural handling position of the operator making the tank easier to change.
