Powertrain
Forklifts must be really tough to last for hours of use in many extreme environments. Though being ergonomic for operators, these machines have to be able to move loads fast or efficiently. The rugged, reliable Yale powertrain offers superior durability through its really robust shafts and gears, state of the art clutch pack and computer controlled engine and transmission. The transmission, engine, drive axle and steer axle are all isolated so as to reduce noise and vibration inside the operator's compartment.
Electrical
The electrical system of a lift truck is responsible for linking the truck's major nerve centers together. Hence, the electrical system within the lift truck needs to be really reliable and durable for the most demanding hot/cold and dry/wet operations. There is much sophistication needed in order to control truck functionality.
Delivering dependable electronics are a well-known hallmark of all Yale trucks. The Yale CANbus electrical system uses digital technology and reduces wiring and reduces electrical connections too. This results in remarkable serviceability and improved dependability.
Hydraulics
The forklifts hydraulics are the muscles of the vehicle, giving the necessary force to raise numerous heavy loads. All Yale trucks feature industrial grade hydraulic components. Several of these components consist of: heavy-duty hydraulic valves, leak resistant O-ring face seal fittings, fine micron filters and long lasting hoist and tilt cylinders. The control valve has been strategically placed to be able to prolong part life by minimizing exposure to heat sources.
Yale's diesel forklifts provide extreme reliability and are known for withstanding harsh working situations and coming out on top. These machinery have been built in such a precise way that attention to detail has been taken into consideration in order to keep the operator as comfortable as they can be.
