Engineered for Safety
Yale is renowned for offering safe lift trucks which are adaptable and flexible for many different tasks and applications. The ability to design and produce units for better safety comes from the new technology which is available in the company's experience and the material handling business.
Yale likes to integrate new technology which is available into their newest designs. Several of the new technologies that are available are initially applied to forklift trucks and then later proven further through durability testing and functionality. The company conducts numerous reliability development and controlled field tests so as to make sure that their products are very safe.
In order to improve overall safety, Yale has designed and developed lots of new features, which have been integrated on many models including:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
The operator compartment has been designed with ergonomics in mind, using state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids exhaustion as well as heavy repetitive motions. These extra comforts help to increase overall productivity.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
Adjustable operator controls allow the operators to choose the positioning of their necessary controls. This helps make the machinery user friendly, regardless of who is using 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 operated if the operator is not in the right operating position. This presence system also disables directional travel on internal combustion engine truck models.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The LPG tank has a drop down design which brings it out from the vehicle's center to the operator's natural handling position that makes it way easier to change.
