Designed for Safety
Yale is renowned for offering safe lift trucks that are flexible and adaptable for many different applications and tasks. The ability to produce and engineer 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 latest designs. Several of the new technologies which are on the market are first applied to forklift trucks and then later proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company performs many controlled field tests and reliability development so as to ensure their products are very safe.
To be able to improve overall safety, Yale has engineered and developed a lot of new features, which have been incorporated on lots of models such as:
Operator Compartment Controls and Ergonomics
The ergonomics in the operator compartment along with the controls are made with state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to ensure that the operator avoids heavy repetitive motions as well as exhaustion. These extra comforts help to increase overall production.
Adjustable Operators Controls and Compartment
Adjustable operator controls enable the operators to choose the positioning of their necessary controls. This helps make the equipment user friendly, regardless of who is utilizing it. Prior to beginning their shift, the operator can make sure she or he is as comfortable as possible.
Operator Presence System
Yale's hydraulic system operation referred to as the Operator Presence System prevents the operation of the equipment if the operator is not in the correct operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on IC engine truck units.
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 far easier to change.
