|
Contact: Michael P. Gallagher, IDSA, Crown Equipment Corp., 419.629.2220 x2668 Designers: Crown Equipment Corp., Design Central and Ergonomic Systems Design, Inc. An operator-forward design distinguishes this sit-down counterbalanced lift truck found in warehouses and docks around the world. The updated design improves ergonomics for the user, creates a distinctive style and simplifies serviceability, not to mention distinguishing it from the pack. Round tubing replaces bulky pillars to give the operator better access and visibility. The elegant design solution not only meets cost targets, but also inspires users. "Concern for the user is pre-eminent in this design. The forward-tilting steering wheel allows safer entry and egress. It also provides service access to critical areas without tools, increasing workforce productivity and safety. If these people designed a car, it would be awesome." -Noel Mayo, IDSA, Ohio State University |
