Optional Accessories for Your Forklift
Audible Devices - Back-Up or Motion Alarms:
The audible devices like motion alarms or back-up alarms generate sound which has to be very loud to be heard above the noise that the forklift creates in the operating area.
The sound produced by the audio device must be discernible from other audible devices or sounds from the work setting. The sound must also be different from the other sound or audible devices within the work area. The audible device could employee noise exposure and end up contribute to OSHA noise limitation; therefore, care needs to be taken.
Hearing protection makes it trickier to hear the audible device and to distinguish what distance and direction it is coming from. Audible devices could occasionally get disabled from operators and employees as they could find them really irritating. Moreover, audible devices may also be objectionable to residents in the vicinity.
Additional Operator & Application Options:
Enclosed Operator Cabs: Operator enclosed cabs help to protect the operator from the elements. They use tempered glass in order to prevent injuries. Additionally, these cabs feature an emergency exit via removing the window. Noise levels are reduced at the operator's ear due to additional sound proofing.
Operator Selectable Performance Modes: The operator could choose the performance requirement for the specific application. Additionally, it enables a supervisor to set the model's maximum performance for an operator who is just learning. Being able to adjust and reduce the maximum performance of the model enables a new operator to learn the operating characteristics of the machine in a controlled setting.
Impact Monitor: The impact monitor disables the unit and when this occurs, it requires a supervisor to re-enable and override the model. This encourages the operator to be certain to manage the machinery in a more controlled manner.
Panoramic and Dual Rear View Mirrors: These mirrors serve as an aid to the operator in observing the tail swing area, as well as the operating environment behind the truck.
