The EK series offers a wide variety of operator cab solutions. The enclosed gated cab is designed to offer a secure and safe environment. This does not mean the operator is captive within the cab.

The gates are designed to protect the operator from encroaching or leaning loads similar to the function of an overhead guard. In the unlikely event that a protruding or transported load is shoved towards the operator the wall and gates would offer a measure of protection.

In some case however these protective gates can interfere with pick requirements of large or bulky loads. In this case corner gates allow the operator access to load as well as the rack.

All gates are interlocked with the vehicle travel and hydraulic controllers.
