Engineered for Safety
Yale is famous for providing safe lift trucks that are adaptable and flexible for various applications and tasks. The ability to engineer and manufacture units for improved safety comes from the new technology which is available in the material handling industry and the company's experience.
Yale likes to integrate new technology which is available into their newest designs. Some of the new technologies which are on the market are initially applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company conducts many controlled field tests and reliability development so as to make sure that their products are really safe.
In order to enhance overall safety, Yale has engineered and developed a lot of new features, which have been integrated on many models including:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
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 heavy repetitive motions and fatigue. These extra comforts help to increase overall productivity.
Adjustable Operators Controls and Compartment
Adjustable operator controls allow the operators to choose the positioning of their necessary controls. This helps make the machine user friendly, regardless of who is utilizing it. Before beginning their shift, the operator could make sure he or she is as comfortable as possible.
Operator Presence System
The Operator Presence System prevents the hydraulic system operation from being operated if the operator is not in the correct operating position. This presence system also disables directional travel on trucks which have IC engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The drop-down design brings the liquid propane gas 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.
