Zusammenfassung:A materials handling vehicle (10) comprising a power unit (14), a load handling assembly (12) coupled to said power unit (14), at least one obstacle detector (76, 76A, 76B) mounted to said power unit (14) to detect an object located along a path of travel of said power unit (14), said detector (76, 76A, 76B) generating a distance signal upon detecting an object corresponding to a distance between the detected object and said power unit (14), a load sensor (LS) to generate a weight signal indicative of a weight of a load on said load handling assembly (12), and a controller (103) receiving said distance signal and said weight signal and generating a corresponding vehicle stop or maximum allowable speed signal based on said distance and weight signals.
