Powertrain
A forklift has to be tough enough to last for many hours of heavy use in extreme environments. These machinery need to be able to move loads efficiently and fast whilst still being ergonomic to the operator. The reliable, rugged Yale powertrain offers superior durability through its extremely strong 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 in order to reduce noise and vibration inside the compartment of the operator.

Electrical
The electrical system of a lift truck is responsible for connecting the major nerve centers of the truck together. Thus, the electrical system in the lift truck must be reliable and durable for the most demanding hot/cold and dry/wet operations. There is much sophistication needed in order to control truck functionality.

Yale trucks are known for delivering dependable electronics. The Yale CANbus electrical system utilizes digital technology and lessens electrical connections and lessens 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 numerous heavy loads. All Yale trucks feature industrial grade hydraulic components. Some of these components comprise: 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 to be able to prolong part life by reducing exposure to heat sources.

Yale's diesel forklifts provide extreme reliability and are recognized for withstanding harsh working conditions and coming out on top. These machines have been constructed 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.
