Engineered for Safety
Yale is renowned for offering safe lift trucks which are adaptable and flexible for various tasks and applications. The ability to engineer and produce models for better safety comes from the new technology that is available in the material handling industry and the company's experience.
In their latest designs, Yale has started incorporating newly available technologies. Some of the new technologies which are on the market are first applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through durability testing and functionality. The company performs various reliability development and controlled field tests so as to ensure their products are really safe.
Some of Yale's innovative designs and technology which 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 designed with ergonomics in mind, using state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids exhaustion and heavy repetitive motions. These extra comforts help to increase overall productivity.
Adjustable Operators Controls and Compartment
Having adjustable operator's controls and compartments allows the necessary controls to be able to be positioned in close proximity to a wide range of operators. This helps make the equipment user friendly, regardless of who is operating it. Before beginning their shift, the operator can make certain 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 machinery if the operator is not in the right operating position. This presence system additionally 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 vehicle's center to the operator's natural handling position that makes it way easier to change.
