In News, News Snippets by Alisa Evans

Enhancing the Safety of Empty Container Handler Operators:

In dynamic operational environments, lift trucks face various potential incidents, including unfortunate accidents.

The Overhead Guard – Safety Cage from Konecranes deals with the significant damage that could be caused by an empty container failing from the above average heights empty containers are stacked at.

When heavy metal items or containers pose a risk of falling from above average heights, the consequences for an unprotected lift truck cabin can be severe.

By equipping your Konecranes empty container handlers with an Overhead Guard – Safety Cage, you can significantly elevate the standard FOPS cabin protection to improve operator safety against falling objects.

 

Maximize Protection from Aerial Hazards:

Lift trucks are frequently deployed in dynamic settings where accidents are regrettably possible. The aftermath of a high-impact collision with falling heavy metal goods or containers on an unprotected lift truck cabin can be catastrophic. Installing the Overhead Guard – Safety Cage becomes crucial to mitigate such risks and enhance operator safety.

 

Understanding the Overhead Guard Mechanism:

The Overhead Guard is a robust, cage-like metal structure positioned over the operator’s cabin. It is specifically designed to withstand impacts from falling objects, such as empty containers, while maintaining excellent visibility in all directions for safe vehicle operation.

 

Introducing the Safety Cage:

Functioning as a vital safeguard in challenging settings, the Safety Cage envelops the cabin in a sturdy, protective structure. Tailored for generation B & C models of Konecranes Empty Container Handlers, this Overhead Guard – Safety Cage ensures a perfect fit.
