SAFE T BELT protects

Safe T Belt is the
seat belt solution for industrial vehicles around the world.
The combination of its unique ergonomic design matched with the electrically
switching buckle ensures seat belt
compliance by operators regardless if they are under direct supervision or
working solo.

webbing, the SAFE T BELT will
accommodate the largest operator, including operators wearing equipment such as
re-breathers.
Ensuring that your employees wear a correctly fastened seatbelt is one of the
most significant changes an employer can
make to any safety program involving forklift truck or mobile plant in a short
period of time.
Safety is the legal responsibility of the employer and Safe T Belt is your
partner in achieving that objective.
Ensuring that your employees wear a correctly fastened
seatbelt is most probably one of the most significant changes you, as an

employer.

Fitting a Safe T belt is a matter of
life and death
|
Whether
it’s because they can’t be bothered, find them unnecessary or they
wrongly think it’s safer to try and jump free in an emergency, the
fact is that many operators don’t fasten their seat belts, often with
tragic results.
That’s why we felt compelled to develop a more practical
alternative. It’s called the Safe T belt
because as you can see, it springs up when unbuckled making it a real
nuisance and uncomfortable to operate the machine or mobile plant. |
Then
when it’s buckled, it holds the operator firmly, comfortably and
safely in his seat. A universal fitting kit makes it easy to install
SAFE T BELT
in all common types of mobile machinery. |
Why a Safe T Belt and not a normal seatbelt?
|
A
normal seatbelt if correctly fastened will lock a drivers hips in a
forward position, which is comfortable for operators travelling forward
however a forklift operator in particular will spend approximately half
his time travelling in reverse and the other half in a forward
direction. |
SAFE T BELT
allows the operators the freedom of movement they require
while at the same time keeping them safely restrained in the vehicle in
the event of an accident. |

We already have seat belts on our equipment.
If operators are not
wearing the belts provided and this cannot be enforced then what good are the
belts when an accident occurs?
If there is an incident where the driver expects a tip over
is going to occur Safe T Belt will keep the driver inside the cabin, where
statistics prove there is a greater chance of surviving.
Safe T Belt can be locked into a position so that it springs erect and
becomes a nuisance to the operator if he is not wearing it while positioned in
the drivers seat.
Safe T Belt will overcome the major objections from
drivers that it is too uncomfortable to wear their safety belts while performing
their duties in a expedient manner.
The bottom line where seat belts are concerned...
