Optional Accessories for Your Forklift
Audible Devices - Motion or back-Up Alarms:
Motion alarms and backup alarms are audio device accessories which produce enough sound so that the noise is heard overtop the noises generated from the forklift itself.
The sound generated by the audio device should be discernible from other audible devices or noises from the work setting. The sound must also be different from the other sound or audible devices in the work area. The audible device could employee noise exposure and end up contribute to OSHA noise limitation; therefore, care has to be taken.
Determine the direction and distance the sound of the audible device is made more difficult due to the use of hearing protection. Audible devices can occasionally get disabled from both operators and employees because they can find them very annoying. Furthermore, audible devices can also be objectionable to nearby residents.
Additional Application and Operator Options:
Enclosed Operator Cabs: Operator enclosed cabs help to protect the operator from the elements. They utilize tempered glass so as to prevent injuries. Moreover, these cabs feature an emergency exit through removing the window. The levels of noise are reduced at the operator's ear because of additional sound proofing.
Operator Selectable Performance Modes: The operator could choose the performance requirement for the specific use. Moreover, it allows a supervisor to set the maximum performance of a unit for an operator who is just learning. Being able to lessen and adjust the maximum performance of the model allows a new operator to learn the machine's operating features in a controlled environment.
Impact Monitor: When the impact monitor is disabled, a supervisor is required to enable and override the unit. This encourages the operator to be sure to manage the equipment in a more controlled manner.
Panoramic and Dual Rear View Mirrors: These mirrors serve as an aid to the operator in observing the operating environment behind the truck as well as the tail swing area.
