Results from an independent survey of a nationally representative
sample of forklift operators indicate that operators really do
prefer our trucks.* Innovative designs like our optimized step
height, increased shoulder clearance, easy right-side access and
ergonomically designed controls make this truck an operator favorite.
Rear driving comfort has been enhanced with a convenient
optional rear drive handle (complete with horn button) optimally
placed on the rear overhead guard leg. The rear drive handle,
in conjunction with an optional swivel seat, create a comfortable
and secure work environment. A moderately sized steering wheel,
and the infinitely adjustable steer column, accommodate operators
of all sizes.
A low step height provides easy entry and exit. The standard,
cowl-mounted manual hydraulic levers also allow easy access for
right-side entry/exit. Yales overhead guard design also
offers plenty of headroom.
The
optional Yale Accutouch electro-hydraulic control offers
an excellent ergonomic design with shorter reach and throw and
considerably less effort required to operate versus common hydraulic
levers. The fully-adjustable swing-up armrest is contoured for
maximum comfort and flexibility to minimize muscle and joint strain.
The Auto Deceleration System (standard on the Yale Techtronix™
transmissions) reduces brake pedal usage, and therefore operator
leg fatigue.
The optional EZ-Tank Bracket is an added feature on the
standard swing-out bracket. The LP tank swings out and drops down
approximately 60 degrees for virtually effortless removal and
installation.
