Engineered for Safety
Yale has a great history for providing safe lift trucks that are suitable for a range of uses. The ability to manufacture and engineer units for better safety comes from the new technology that is available in the material handling business and the company's experience.
In their newest designs, Yale has started incorporating newly available technologies. Several of the new technologies that are available are initially applied to forklift trucks and then later proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company conducts various reliability development and controlled field tests in order to ensure their products are really safe.
So as to enhance overall safety, Yale has engineered and developed many new features, which have been integrated on many models such as:
Operator Compartment Controls and Ergonomics
The operator compartment has been engineered with ergonomics in mind, using state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids fatigue as well as heavy repetitive motions. These added comforts help to increase overall efficiency.
Adjustable Operators Compartment and Controls
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 using it. Before starting their shift, the operator could make sure she or he is as comfortable as he or she could be.
Operator Presence System
Yale's hydraulic system operation known as the Operator Presence System prevents the operation of the machine if the operator is not in the correct operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on trucks that have IC engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The LPG tank has a drop down design which brings it out from the vehicle's center to the operator's natural handling position which makes it way easier to change.
