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