Designed for Safety
Yale is famous for providing safe lift trucks that are flexible and adaptable for various applications and tasks. The ability to manufacture and design models for enhanced safety comes from the new technology that is available in the material handling industry and the company's experience.
In their latest designs, Yale has started incorporating newly available technologies. Some of the new technologies which are available are initially applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company conducts many reliability development and controlled field tests so as to ensure their products are really safe.
To be able to enhance overall safety, Yale has designed and developed lots of new features, that have been integrated on lots of models such as:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
The operator compartment has been engineered with ergonomics in mind, using 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 efficiency.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
Having adjustable operator's controls and compartments enables the necessary controls to be able to be positioned near a wide range of operators. This helps make the equipment user friendly, regardless of who is using it. Before starting their shift, the operator can make certain he or she 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 right operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on trucks that have internal combustion 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 operator's natural handling position making the tank easier to change.
