Engineered for Safety
Yale is renowned for providing safe lift trucks that are flexible and adaptable for various tasks and applications. 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 industry.
In their newest designs, Yale has started incorporating newly available technologies. Some of the new technologies which are available are initially applied to forklift trucks and then later proven further through durability testing and functionality. The company conducts many reliability development and controlled field tests in order to ensure their products are really safe.
So as to improve overall safety, Yale has engineered and developed a lot of new features, that have been incorporated on a lot of models including:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
The operator compartment has been engineered with ergonomics in mind, using state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids heavy repetitive motions and fatigue. These extra comforts help to increase overall efficiency.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
Adjustable operator controls enable the operators to choose the positioning of their necessary controls. This helps make the machine user friendly, regardless of who is operating it. Before starting their shift, the operator can make certain he or she is as comfortable as she or he can be.
Operator Presence System
Yale's hydraulic system operation known as the Operator Presence System prevents the use of the machine if the operator is not in the correct operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on trucks which have IC engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The liquid propane gas tank has a drop down design which brings it out from the vehicle's center to the natural handling position of the operator which makes it far easier to change.
