Engineered for Safety
Yale is renowned for providing safe lift trucks that are adaptable and flexible for various tasks and applications. The ability to design and produce units for better safety comes from the new technology which is available in the material handling business and the company's experience.
In their newest designs, Yale has started incorporating newly available technologies. Several of the new technologies which are on the market are first applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company conducts numerous controlled field tests and reliability development in order to ensure their products are really safe.
So as to enhance overall safety, Yale has engineered and developed many new features, which have been incorporated on many models like:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
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 heavy repetitive motions as well as exhaustion. These added comforts help to increase overall efficiency.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
Adjustable operator controls enable the operators to choose the positioning of their necessary controls. This helps make the machinery user friendly, regardless of who is operating it. Before starting their shift, the operator can make certain she or he is as comfortable as possible.
Operator Presence System
Yale's hydraulic system operation called the Operator Presence System prevents the operation of the machinery if the operator is not in the right operating position. This presence system also disables directional travel on trucks that have IC engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The drop-down design brings the liquid propane gas tank out from the protected center of the truck and down to the operator's natural handling position making the tank easier to change.
