To make every Hyster machinery safer for the driver and the other work place personnel, all Hyster lift trucks can be equipped with a lot of the optional and standard features. These features consist of: audible devices, safety lights, operator restraint systems, and ergonomic operator compartments.
To be able to help alert others of a nearby or approaching forklift, visual safety devices like strobe lights may help. There is a low-mounted strobe light that has a shield to help avoid the light shining into the operator's eyes.
Audible warning devices such as reverse operation alarms, which automatically sound when the lift truck is backing-up, warn other people of the presence of a lift truck within the area. A rear drive handle with horn allows the operator's hand to be secure when backing-up. This inboard handle protects the operator's hand in case of impact and the handle includes a horn which allows the operator to sound the horn without having to move their hand to the main steering wheel.
In the event of a forklift flip over, operator restraint systems help to keep the forklift operator's head and torso inside the cab of the truck to help avoid serious injury. Hip Restraints and Anti-Cinch Seat Belt are basic features on all types of Hyster/Yale lift trucks. For older Hyster/Yale forklifts, safety restraint systems are available for installation on nearly all units.
