Features of JLG’s telehandler Seatbelt Engagement and Operator Presence system include:

  • Operator presence feature restricts engine start and hydraulic functions when an operator is not present in the seat.
  • Seatbelt engagement feature produces a visible and audible alarm when an operator is seated and unbuckled.
  • Orange high-visibility seat belt encourages operator seat belt use.

These telehandler features work together to enhance job site safety by using both visual and audible alarms, as well as limiting machine functions.
