Engineered for Safety
Yale is famous for providing safe lift trucks which are adaptable and flexible for various applications and tasks. The ability to manufacture and design units for enhanced safety comes from the new technology which is available in the material handling business and the company's experience.
Yale likes to incorporate new technology which is available into their newest designs. Some of the new technologies that are available are initially applied to forklift trucks and then later proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company performs numerous reliability development and controlled field tests in order to make certain that their products are very safe.
Some of Yale's innovative designs and technology that has been incorporated as standard features for their fleet so as to enhance overall safety consist of the following:
Operator Compartment Controls and Ergonomics
The operator compartment has been engineered 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 fatigue. These extra comforts help to increase overall productivity.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
Having adjustable operator's compartment and controls enables the necessary controls to be able to be positioned near a huge array of operators. This helps make the machine user friendly, regardless of who is utilizing it. Prior to beginning their shift, the operator can make certain he or she is as comfortable as possible.
Operator Presence System
Yale's hydraulic system operation known as the Operator Presence System prevents the operation of the machine 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 LPG 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.
