Engineered for Safety
Yale has a great history for offering safe lift trucks that are suitable for a variety of uses. 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 business.
Yale likes to integrate new technology which is available into their latest designs. Several of the new technologies that are on the market are initially applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company performs various reliability development and controlled field tests in order to make sure that their products are very safe.
In order to enhance overall safety, Yale has engineered and developed lots of new features, which have been incorporated on a lot of models like:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
The ergonomics in the operator compartment as well as the controls are made with 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 Controls and Compartment
Having adjustable operator's compartment and controls enables the necessary controls to be able to be positioned in close proximity to a wide range of operators. This helps make the machinery user friendly, regardless of who is utilizing it. Prior to starting their shift, the operator could make certain she or he is as comfortable as possible.
Operator Presence System
Yale's hydraulic system operation known as the Operator Presence System prevents the operation of the equipment if the operator is not in the correct operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on internal combustion engine truck models.
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 operator's natural handling position which makes it way easier to change.
