Optional Accessories for Your Forklift
Audible Devices - Back-Up or Motion Alarms:
The audible devices such as motion alarms or back-up alarms generate sound which has to be loud enough in order to be heard above the sound that the forklift makes in the operating place.
The sound produced by the audio device must be distinguishable from other audible devices or sounds from the work environment. The sound must also be different from the other sound or audible devices within the work area. The audible device can end up contributing to OSHA noise limitation and to employee noise exposure; thus, care has to be taken.
Determine the direction and distance the sound of the audible device is made more difficult because of the use of hearing protection. Audible devices can occasionally get deactivated from both operators and workers because they can find them irritating. Moreover, audible devices could also be objectionable to residents in the vicinity.
Additional Operator & Application Options:
Enclosed Operator Cabs: Operator enclosed cabs help to protect the operator from the elements. They use tempered glass in order to avoid injuries. Moreover, these cabs feature an emergency exit through window removal. Noise levels are reduced at the operator's ear because of additional sound proofing.
Operator Selectable Performance Modes: For every particular application, the operator is able to choose the performance requirement. Furthermore, it allows a supervisor to set the model's maximum performance for an operator who is just learning. Being able to adjust and reduce the maximum performance of the unit allows a new operator to learn the operating characteristics of the equipment in a controlled setting.
Impact Monitor: The impact monitor deactivates the unit and when this happens, it requires a supervisor to re-enable and override the model. This encourages the operator to be certain to manage the machinery in a more controlled manner.
Dual Rear View and Panoramic Mirrors: These mirrors serve as an aid to the operator in observing the tail swing area, as well as the operating environment behind the truck.
