The Muirhead® Engine Shutdown Timer (EST) is a smart and safe product specifically designed to complement the Toyota OEM seat and buckle sequencing system (OPS).
Designed to co-exist and further enhance the OEM system, the Muirhead® EST will allow the engine to run safely for 2 minutes while the operator is off the seat (programmable from 0-5 minutes) as long as the operator has the park brake applied. If the park brake is not applied, the engine will shutdown in 5 seconds.
This acts as a training aid so that the operator is in the habit of applying the park brake before they alight, it enhances safety by automatically turning the engine off after the pre-set time, thus providing lower running and operational costs for the end-user and also taking safety and compliance to a higher level.
Further, if the park brake is not applied and the operator gets on the seat the ignition will not turn on as the sequence is broken - the park brake must be applied first. This reinforces the need to always apply the park brake before alighting.
The kits are custom designed to suit 8 Series Toyota forklifts in the range of 1.8T - 3.5T and have been designed to plug and play into the Toyota machine wiring. This allows for simple and fast installation. They may also fit your larger capacity Toyota models - check with your Toyota technical team for suitability.
