Figure 1. Run Bar Location

Mount the DUO-TOUCH Run Bar to maximize its ergonomic

design and minimize the possibility of defeat.

To minimize the possibility of defeat, ISO 13851 (EN 574)

recommends that the hand controls be arranged on a

horizontal (or nearly horizontal) surface, 1100 mm (43.3")

above the floor. The Run Bar makes this installation easy.

To maximize ergonomics, ANSI B11.TR1 recommends that

for light to normal work the position should be 50 to 100 mm

(2" to 4") above or below elbow height. Elbow height should

be determined and adjusted for each individual operator.

Anthropometric tables provide a range for guidance (see

ANSI B11.TR1 Annex A):

Tilting the run bar (using the bracket’s multiple-hole

adjustment) allows for varying operator heights while

maintaining a neutral wrist position. This rotation should not

exceed ±30º, especially when an emergency stop button is

mounted on the top of the run bar. Hand and wrist posture is

considered to be neutral when the hand is neither flexed nor

extended beyond about 15º of the normally relaxed position.

Figure 3. ANSI BII.TR1 Recommended Maximum Reach Distances

Per ANSI B11.TR1, the most desirable location for controls

used by a standing operator is a position directly in front of

the operator, and at a height between chest and waist

level. Frequent reaches should nominally be made within

350 to 450 mm (14" to 18") from the center of the shoulder

to the run bar. Only occasional reaches should be made

within 550 to 650 mm (22" to 26"); avoid reaches farther

than 650 mm (26"), see Figure 2.
