Engineered for Safety
Yale is renowned for offering safe lift trucks which are flexible and adaptable for various tasks and applications. The ability to manufacture and design units for better safety comes from the new technology which is available in the material handling business and the company's experience.
Yale likes to integrate new technology which is available into their latest designs. Several of the new technologies that are available are initially applied to forklift trucks and then later proven further through durability testing and functionality. The company performs many controlled field tests and reliability development so as to make certain that their products are really safe.
Some of Yale's new designs and technology that has been incorporated as standard features for their fleet so as to improve overall safety comprise the following:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
The operator compartment has been engineered with ergonomics in mind, utilizing state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids fatigue and heavy repetitive motions. These added comforts help to increase overall productivity.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
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 operating it. Before starting their shift, the operator can make certain he or she is as comfortable as he or she can be.
Operator Presence System
The Operator Presence System prevents the hydraulic system operation from being utilized if the operator is not in the correct operating position. This presence system also disables directional travel on trucks which have internal combustion engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The LPG tank has a drop down design that brings it out from the vehicle's center to the operator's natural handling position that makes it way easier to change.
