Enhanced Safety and Ergonomics with Heister A Series Forklift
Key insights
- ⚙️ The Dynamic Stability System (DSS) reinforces proper operation through visual and audible alerts as well as performance reductions to keep the truck stable and reduce the likelihood of tip overs.
- 🚧 The lateral stability system uses a rubber block design to provide flexibility and articulation in the steer axle, reducing truck lean and turns without requiring maintenance and without causing accelerated tire wear.
- ⚠️ The high lift traction control limits the truck's speed when the forks are raised, providing visual and audible alerts to remind operators to keep the load down low for better center of gravity and stability.
- ⛔ DSS engages when the operator is not following proper procedures, designed to reinforce proper operation without reducing productivity, and comes as standard equipment.
- 🔧 The Heister A Series truck equipped with Telemetry offers advanced features like Dynamic Stability System without added maintenance, emphasizing operator ergonomics with improved accessibility, comfort, and visibility.
- 🔆 The forklift features a push button park brake, improved visibility through glass overhead guard and redesigned mast, rugged and durable design with added options for lights and fork laser for enhanced productivity.
- ⛽ The forklift is equipped with a Yanmar engine known for durability and dependability, with extended maintenance intervals and electronically controlled transmission.
- 🔩 The Heister A series truck offers various powertrain and customization options to improve durability, reduce wear and tear on brakes and tires, and enhance operator control.
