In some environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a great option for protecting employees from harsh conditions. An emergency exit, tempered glass and sound proofing help to keep the employee safe. Dual and panoramic rear view mirrors are available to enhance operator visibility, especially of the part behind the forklift and the tail swing area. Impact monitors can be installed that disable the model and require a manager or supervisor to re-enable the forklift. This could help to ensure that employees are safely operating equipment.

The park brake automatically applies itself when the lift truck comes to a complete stop.
