Industry leading ergonomic design and construction

Linde products are renowned for their outstanding ergonomic design and execution. For decades, we have set the industry standards for noise and vibration abatement and optimized bio-mechanical control systems, resulting in unmatched operator comfort. The 1401 series embodies over 100 years of pioneering progress in all aspects of mobile material handling equipment design. A long time ago we recognized the indisputable correlation between operator comfort and satisfaction, increased productivity, reduced merchandise damage, longer equipment life and maximum operational safety. For the new 1401 range of trucks our design incorporates the following standard ergonomic enhancements for the operator.

• Extremely low ambient noise levels of (74dBa at drivers ear)
• Centered mid-frame and forward operator seating position with totally unobstructed view through the mast
• Wide mast channel spacing with exterior chain and hydraulic hose routing locations for optimum forward visibility
• Low-profile and angled engine access deck with no obstructions for best possible visibility to the rear of the machine
• Wide, self-cleaning cab steps for easy and safest possible on-off operator access, including hand safety-rails
• Shock-mounted/floating fully enclosed steel operator cab with tinted glass, three wiper-washer systems, filtered-air heater/defroster system and emergency exit
• Adjustable steering column
• Four-way hydraulic adjustable fabric covered operator seat with absent driver seat-switch and seat belt. Seat console includes integral and fully adjustable operator armrest with hydraulic control levers
• Linde patented twin-pedal directional control system (LTC / Linde Truck Control) and automatic engine RPM adjustment (LLC / Linde Load Control) for all working hydraulic functions
• Lockable under-seat storage compartment
• Electric parking brake release and emergency power disconnect button
• Electric door release with mechanical over-ride
• Interior rear-view mirror
• Dual interior cab lights
• Dual sliding windows
• Dual hand-hold rails
• Dual cup holders
• Dual paperwork trays
• Dual coat-hooks

Smooth, quiet and precise operating characteristics are hallmarks of the Linde 1401 series. The lack of torque-converter shift-shock, a condition typically encountered on conventional trucks, significantly reduces potential product handling damage. Our independent traction and working hydraulic systems eliminate truck surge and insure unrivalled control of the load under all possible application conditions. With ergonomic excellence a top priority, ideal chassis weight distribution and standard shock-mounted components, such as our hydraulic valves, operator cab and steering axle, make for a highly stable, vibration-free and less stressful operator working environment day-after day, year-after-year. In essence, today's Linde trucks effectively define industry leading ergonomic design and construction, something not likely to change any time soon.
