I knew it could be done and it probably has been done. I agree that the seatbelt issue is a management issue and that any employee can find a way around it (i.e a separate seat belt clip not connected to the actual seat belt). We have the orage one on order and will install when they get here but hearing the Hyster guy tell me that that kind of system doesn't exist got me thinking. I do think that it would certainly help in at least making the operator think about the seatbelt and it's use before operating the lift. We also have a new Hyster here that does not have the seatbelt/brake/seat sensor system like described above. Just have to be in the seat and then it will work. Just wanted some opinions about it and you all have given great insight, so thanks!
