Powertrain
Lift trucks must be really tough to last for hours of use in many extreme settings. While being ergonomic for operators, these machines need to be able to move loads fast or efficiently. The reliable, rugged Yale powertrain offers excellent durability through its extremely strong shafts and gears, state of the art clutch pack and computer controlled engine and transmission. The engine, transmission, drive axle and steer axle are all isolated in order to lessen vibration and noise inside the compartment of the operator.

Electrical
The lift truck's electrical system is responsible for connecting the major nerve centers of the truck together. Hence, the electrical system in the lift truck has to be really durable and reliable for the most demanding hot/cold and dry/wet operations. There is much sophistication needed to be able to control truck functionality.

Yale trucks are known for delivering dependable electronics. The Yale CANbus electrical system uses digital technology and lessens electrical connections and reduces wiring as well. This results in awesome serviceability and improved dependability.

Hydraulics
The hydraulics are the forklift's "muscles". They give the necessary force needed to lift heavy loads during the entirety of a long shift. All Yale trucks feature industrial grade hydraulic components. Several of these parts consist of: leak resistant O-ring face seal fittings, heavy-duty hydraulic valves, fine micron filters and long lasting hoist and tilt cylinders. The control valve has been strategically positioned so as to prolong part life by reducing exposure to heat sources.

Yale's diesel forklifts provide extreme reliability and are recognized for withstanding harsh working situations and coming out on top. These machines have been constructed in such a precise way that attention to detail has been considered in order to keep the operator as comfortable as possible.
