Engineered for Safety
Yale has a great history for providing safe lift trucks that are suitable for a variety of applications. The ability to make and design units for enhanced safety comes from the new technology that is available in the company's experience and the material handling industry.
Yale likes to integrate new technology which is available into their latest designs. Several of the new technologies that are on the market are first applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through durability testing and functionality. The company performs various reliability development and controlled field tests in order to make certain that their products are really safe.
To be able to improve overall safety, Yale has designed and developed a lot of new features, which have been incorporated on lots of models including:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
The ergonomics within the operator compartment as well as the controls are made with state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids heavy repetitive motions and fatigue. These extra comforts help to increase overall production.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
Having adjustable operator's controls and compartments enables the necessary controls to be able to be positioned in close proximity to a wide array of operators. This helps make the machine user friendly, regardless of who is operating it. Prior to beginning 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 utilized if the operator is not in the right operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on trucks which have internal combustion engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The liquid propane gas tank has a drop down design that brings it out from the center of the vehicle to the operator's natural handling position which makes it far easier to change.
