Optional Accessories for Your Forklift
Audible Devices - Back-Up or Motion Alarms:
Motion alarms and backup alarms are audio device accessories that produce enough sound so that the noise is heard overtop the noises generated from the forklift itself.
The sound produced by the audio device should be discernible from other audible devices or sounds from the work environment. The sound should also be different from the other noise or audible devices in 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 really trickier to hear the audible device and to determine what distance and direction it is coming from. Audible devices can occasionally get deactivated from both operators and employees since they can find them really irritating. In addition, audible devices may also be objectionable to nearby residents.
Additional Operator & Application Options:
Enclosed Operator Cabs: To be able protect the operator from the elements, enclosed operator cabs made of tempered glass are used to help prevent injuries and reduce other concerns. In addition, these cabs feature an emergency exit through window removal. Noise levels are reduced at the operator's ear because of additional sound proofing.
Operator Selectable Performance Modes: The operator is able to choose the performance requirement for the specific use. In addition, it allows a supervisor to set the maximum performance of a unit for an operator who is just starting to learn. Being able to adjust and lessen the unit's utmost performance enables a new operator to learn the machine's operating characteristics in a controlled environment.
Impact Monitor: The impact monitor deactivates the model and when this occurs, it needs a supervisor to re-enable and override the model. This encourages the operator to be sure to manage the machine in a more controlled manner.
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.
