Engineered for Safety
Yale is famous for offering safe lift trucks that are adaptable and flexible for many different applications and tasks. The ability to make and engineer units for improved safety comes from the new technology which is available in the company's experience and the material handling industry.
Yale likes to integrate new technology which is available into their newest designs. Some of the new technologies which are on the market are first applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company conducts numerous controlled field tests and reliability development so as to ensure their products are really safe.
So as to enhance overall safety, Yale has designed and developed a lot of new features, which have been integrated on many models including:
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 ensure that the operator avoids fatigue and heavy repetitive motions. These added comforts help to increase overall production.
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 machine user friendly, regardless of who is utilizing it. Prior to starting their shift, the operator can make sure she or he is as comfortable as possible.
Operator Presence System
The Operator Presence System prevents the hydraulic system operation from being used if the operator is not in the right operating position. This presence system also disables directional travel on internal combustion engine truck models.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The LPG tank has a drop down design that brings it out from the center of the vehicle to the operator's natural handling position which makes it way easier to change.
