Used Clark Propane Forklift Santa Ana

Power
Numerous forklifts are designed to run on propane gas. Forklifts which utilize propane are simple to refill. The gas is stored inside a pressurized tank on the back of the truck. The propane is pushed into the engine, where it is converted into vapor and the vapor combines with air. The forklift throttle is utilized to be able to control the flow of vapor. A spark plug ignites the mixture of air and vapor creating pressure that moves the pistons. The pistons power the hydraulic pump and turn the wheels.

As the types of forklifts which are operated by propane have low emissions and are clean burning, they are suitable to be utilized inside warehouses and other buildings.

Hydraulics
What allows a forklift to lift and transport heavy things from one location to another is the hydraulic system. Tubes, cylinders and a pump make up the hydraulic system. The pump forces dense fluid in the tubing and into the cylinders. The pressure build up pushes a piston, that lifts the forks. When the operator lowers the forks, the hydraulic fluid flows out of the cylinders and back in the pump.

Steering
Propane forklifts work well where maneuverability is needed. Not like an automobile, a forklift utilizes its rear wheels to pivot, that enables the forklift to quickly turn on a tight radius.
