TVH puts a roof on it
Olathe, KS, United States

TVH in the Americas has launched ClearCap Forklift Covers. The covers feature a simple yet effective design to keep operators comfortable and safe no matter what kind of environment they are working in.
ClearCap Covers are manufactured from Ultra Tuff SG polycarbonate. The low-profile dome in the viewing area ensures the operator's field of view stays clear - no matter what environment they operate in. It even features ribs and gutters to prevent water from pooling and blurring the operator's vision and eliminates cascading water during manoeuvres.
The forklift covers mount easily onto any machine with cam lock buckles and nylon straps. There is no drilling or tapping required, and installation takes only seconds.
