Focused on Safety
Each year, more than 68,000 lift truck accidents are reported in the United States. Suffice to say, operator training isn't enough to reduce the number of incidents, however, it is the most important component. Naturally the best approach to preventing lift truck accidents is one that combines the efforts of every person, business and organization involved.
As for lift truck manufacturers, Toyota decided to take the lead role. The result was creating the world's first System of Active Stability™ (SAS).
Using technology originally developed for Toyota's automotive safety systems, SAS is able to electronically monitor and control lift truck operations, helping to reduce the risk of accidents. In short, when the SAS system detects instability, its advanced sensors simultaneously signal and engage the appropriate controller. The Active Control Rear Stabilizer or the Active Mast Function Controller adds stability and helps avoid accidents or injuries.
