Restraint at whisky site February 1st 2006 Caljan Rite-Hite has supplied a Global Wheel Lok (GWL) to the Scottish bottling and distribution site of Chivas Regal. It improves the safety of forklift drivers by preventing unplanned vehicle departures.
The GWL can secure trailers with the rear axle up to 4m from the back of the trailer, and with tyres up to 1.12m in diameter. The truck reverses up to the loading dock and the restraint rises over the rear tyre and locks.
The truck is loaded/unloaded while locked in place. When loading/unloading has finished, the restraint is unlocked, allowing the vehicle to move away safely.
