Designed for Safety
Yale is famous for providing safe lift trucks that are flexible and adaptable for various tasks and applications. The ability to make and engineer units for improved safety comes from the new technology that is available in the company's experience and the material handling industry.
Yale likes to integrate new technology that is available into their newest designs. Several of the new technologies that are available are first applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through durability testing and functionality. The company conducts various reliability development and controlled field tests in order to make certain that their products are very safe.
To be able to improve overall safety, Yale has designed and developed many new features, which have been integrated on lots of models including:
Operator Compartment Controls and Ergonomics
The ergonomics within the operator compartment as well as the controls are made with state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to ensure that the operator avoids heavy repetitive motions and fatigue. These added comforts help to increase overall efficiency.
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 wide array of operators. This helps make the machinery user friendly, regardless of who is utilizing it. Before beginning their shift, the operator could make certain she or he is as comfortable as she or he could 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 that have internal combustion 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.
