Hyster forklifts have many optional and standard feature to make each equipment safer for the operator and other personnel within the work site area. Some of the available features are audible devices, safety lights, ergonomic operator compartments and operator restraint systems.
To help warn others of a nearby or approaching lift truck, visual safety devices like strobe lights could help. There is a low-mounted strobe light which has a shield to help prevent the light shining into the driver's eyes.
Audible warning devices like reverse operation alarms, that sound automatically if the forklift is backing-up, alert others of the presence of a lift truck 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 driver's hand in case of impact and the handle includes a horn which enables the driver to sound the horn without moving their hand to the main steering wheel.
In case of a lift truck flip over, operator restraint systems help to keep the forklift operator's torso and head in the cab of the forklift to help prevent serious injury. Anti-Cinch Seat Belt and Hip Restraints are basic features on all types of Hyster/Yale forklifts. For older Hyster/Yale lift trucks, safety restraint systems are available for installation on nearly all models.
