Engineered for Safety
Yale has a great history for offering safe lift trucks which are suitable for a variety of applications. The ability to engineer and manufacture models for improved safety comes from the new technology which is available in the company's experience and the material handling business.
Yale likes to incorporate new technology which is available into their newest designs. Several of the new technologies that are on the market are first applied to forklift trucks and then later proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company conducts many reliability development and controlled field tests so as to ensure their products are very safe.
In order to enhance overall safety, Yale has engineered and developed lots of new features, which have been integrated on a lot of 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 ensure that the operator avoids exhaustion and 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 machine user friendly, regardless of who is using it. Prior to beginning their shift, the operator could make certain he or she is as comfortable as possible.
Operator Presence System
Yale's hydraulic system operation called the Operator Presence System prevents the operation of the equipment if the operator is not in the right operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on IC 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.
