In order to make every Hyster equipment safer for the operator as well as the other work site staff, all Hyster forklifts can be equipped with lots of the standard and optional features. These features comprise: audible devices, safety lights, ergonomic operator compartments and operator restraint systems.
To help alert other individuals of an approaching or nearby lift truck, visual safety devices like strobe lights can help. There is a low-mounted strobe light that has a shield to help avoid the light shining into the driver's eyes.
Audible warning devices like reverse operation alarms, which sound automatically if the truck is in reverse, alert other people of the presence of a forklift in the area. A rear drive handle with horn allows the driver's hand to be secure when backing-up. This inboard handle protects the operator's hand in the event of impact and the handle has a horn that allows the operator to sound the horn without having to move their hand to the main steering wheel.
The operator restraint systems help to keep the driver safe in the event of a forklift flip over. The restraint system functions by keeping the driver's torso and head in the cab of the lift truck that will help them to prevent serious injury. Anti-Cinch Seat Belt and Hip Restraints are standard features on all types of Hyster/Yale lift trucks. For older Yale/Hyster forklifts, safety restraint systems are available for installation on most units.
