Optional Accessories for Your Forklift
Audible Devices - Back-Up or Motion Alarms:
Back-up alarms and motion alarms are audio device accessories which generate enough sound so that the noise is heard overtop the sounds generated from the forklift itself.
The sound generated by the audio device must be distinguishable from other audible devices or noises from the work environment. The sound must also be different from the other noise or audible devices within the work place. The audible device could employee noise exposure and end up contribute to OSHA noise limitation; therefore, 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 could occasionally get deactivated from both operators and employees since they can find them really annoying. Additionally, audible devices could also be objectionable to nearby residents.
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 avoid injuries and lessen other problems. Furthermore, these cabs feature an emergency exit through removing the window. Noise levels are reduced at the operator's ear due to additional sound proofing.
Operator Selectable Performance Modes: For each specific application, the operator can choose the performance need. As well, it allows a supervisor to set the utmost performance of a model for an operator who is just beginning to learn. Being able to reduce and adjust the maximum performance of the unit allows a new operator to learn the operating features of the machinery in a controlled setting.
Impact Monitor: The impact monitor deactivates the unit and when this happens, it requires a supervisor to activate and override the unit. This encourages the operator to be sure to manage the equipment in a more controlled way.
Dual Rear View and Panoramic Mirrors: These particular mirrors help to assist the operator in observing the operating space behind the vehicle, and their tail swing area.
