The project has discussed the different levels of equipment safety required by the variations in forklift
use and environments. The basic on-board and vehicle design parameters should integrate passive safety
features improving the use of the forklift vehicle in all environments, including in single vehicle, small-scale
operations. In such environments the likelihood of environment/facility design safety features is low due to
cost/demand factors. However, integrated on-board safety features will be potentially applicable in all
environments.
