Designed for Safety
Yale is famous for providing safe lift trucks that are adaptable and flexible for many different applications and tasks. The ability to make and design models for enhanced 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 that is available into their latest designs. Several of the new technologies that are on the market are first applied to forklift trucks and then later proven further through durability testing and functionality. The company conducts various reliability development and controlled field tests in order to ensure their products are really safe.
To be able to enhance overall safety, Yale has designed and developed a lot of new features, that have been incorporated on many models including:
Operator Compartment Controls and Ergonomics
The ergonomics in the operator compartment along with the controls are made with state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids exhaustion and heavy repetitive motions. These extra comforts help to increase overall productivity.
Adjustable Operators Controls and Compartment
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 machine user friendly, regardless of who is using it. Before starting their shift, the operator could make sure he or she is as comfortable as he or she can be.
Operator Presence System
The Operator Presence System prevents the hydraulic system operation from being utilized if the operator is not in the right operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on trucks which have IC engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The LPG tank has a drop down design that brings it out from the vehicle's center to the natural handling position of the operator that makes it far easier to change.
