Powertrain
A lift truck has to be really tough to last for many hours of heavy operation in extreme environments. These equipment need to be able to move loads efficiently and fast while still being ergonomic to the operator. The rugged, reliable Yale powertrain offers excellent durability through its state of the art clutch packs, computer managed engine and transmission and extremely robust shafts and gears. The transmission, engine, steer axle, and drive axle are all isolated so as to lessen noise and vibration within the compartment of the operator.
Electrical
The lift truck's electrical system is responsible for linking the truck's major nerve centers together. Thus, the electrical system within the lift truck has to be durable and dependable for the most demanding dry/wet and hot/cold operations. There is much sophistication required to be able 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 lessens electrical connections and reduces wiring as well. This results in improved dependability and remarkable serviceability.
Hydraulics
The forklifts hydraulics are the vehicle's muscles, giving the necessary force to raise many heavy loads. All Yale trucks feature industrial grade hydraulic components. Several of these components consist of: leak resistant O-ring face seal fittings, heavy-duty hydraulic valves, long lasting tilt and hoist cylinders, and fine micron filters. The control valve has been strategically placed so as to prolong component life by reducing exposure to heat sources.
Yale's diesel forklifts offer extreme reliability and are recognized for withstanding harsh working situations and coming out on top. These machines have been built in such a precise manner that attention to detail has been considered in order to keep the operator as comfortable as they can be.
