Abstract
An armrest adjacent the seating surface for the operator of a fork lift truck or like moving machine has a top face elongated in a predominantly horizontal direction. A low and narrow, elongated side wall projects from the top face adjacent the operator so as to be normally received between the operator's body and lower arm and elbow and to secure the operator. Control elements for the machine are mounted on the front portion of the top face for operation by the fingers of an arm resting on the top face.
