Optional Accessories for Your Forklift
Audible Devices - Motion or back-Up Alarms:
The audible devices such as back-up alarms or motion alarms produce sound that needs 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 end up contributing to OSHA noise limitation and to employee noise exposure; thus, care should be taken.
Hearing protection makes it trickier to hear the audible device and to distinguish which distance and direction it is coming from. Audible devices can occasionally get deactivated from employees and operators since they can find them very annoying. Also, audible devices may also be objectionable to residents in the vicinity.
Additional Application and Operator Options:
Enclosed Operator Cabs: To protect the operator from the elements, enclosed operator cabs made of tempered glass are utilized to help prevent injuries and lessen other concerns. In addition, these cabs feature an emergency exit through removing the window. The levels of noise are lessened at the operator's ear because of additional sound proofing.
Operator Selectable Performance Modes: For each particular application, the operator can choose the performance need. As well, it enables a supervisor to set the unit's maximum performance for an operator who is just beginning to learn. Being able to lessen and adjust the unit's utmost performance allows a new operator to learn the operating characteristics of the machine in a controlled environment.
Impact Monitor: When the impact monitor is disabled, a supervisor is needed to activate and override the model. This encourages the operator to be certain to manage the machinery in a more controlled way.
Dual Rear View and Panoramic 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.
