Engineered for Safety
Yale is renowned for offering safe lift trucks that are adaptable and flexible for many different tasks and applications. The ability to produce and design units for better 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 then later proven further through durability testing and functionality. The company performs many controlled field tests and reliability development so as to make certain that their products are very safe.
In order to enhance overall safety, Yale has designed and developed many new features, that have been incorporated on many models like:
Operator Compartment Controls and Ergonomics
The ergonomics within the operator compartment along with the controls are made with state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids fatigue as well as heavy repetitive motions. These added comforts help to increase overall efficiency.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
Having adjustable operator's compartment and controls allows the necessary controls to be able to be positioned in close proximity to a huge array of operators. This helps make the equipment user friendly, regardless of who is utilizing it. Before beginning their shift, the operator could make certain she or he is as comfortable as possible.
Operator Presence System
The Operator Presence System prevents the hydraulic system operation from being utilized if the operator is not in the correct operating position. This presence system also disables directional travel on trucks which 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 natural handling position of the operator making the tank easier to change.
