Optional Accessories for Your Forklift
Audible Devices - Back-Up or Motion Alarms:
Back-up alarms and motion alarms are audio device accessories that produce enough sound so that the noise is heard overtop the sounds produced from the forklift itself.
The sound generated by the audio device should be distinguishable from other audible devices or noises from the work setting. The sound must also be different from the other sound or audible devices in the work place. The audible device could employee noise exposure and end up contribute to OSHA noise limitation; thus, care needs to be taken.
Hearing protection makes it trickier to hear the audible device and to determine which direction and distance it is coming from. Audible devices could occasionally get deactivated from operators and workers since they could find them irritating. Moreover, audible devices may also be objectionable to residents in the vicinity.
Additional Application and Operator Options:
Enclosed Operator Cabs: Operator enclosed cabs help to protect the operator from the elements. They use tempered glass so as to avoid injuries. Furthermore, these cabs feature an emergency exit through removing the window. Noise levels are lessened at the operator's ear because of additional sound proofing.
Operator Selectable Performance Modes: The operator can choose the performance need for the specific use. Moreover, it enables a supervisor to set the utmost performance of a model for an operator who is just starting to learn. Being able to lessen and adjust the unit's utmost performance enables a new operator to learn the machine's operating features in a controlled setting.
Impact Monitor: The impact monitor disables the unit and when this happens, it requires a supervisor to activate and override the unit. This encourages the operator to be sure to manage the machine in a more controlled manner.
Panoramic and Dual Rear View Mirrors: These mirrors serve as an aid to the operator in observing the operating environment behind the truck as well as the tail swing area.
