Powertrain
Forklifts should be really tough to last for hours of operation in many extreme settings. Though being ergonomic for operators, these machinery have to be able to move loads efficiently and fast. The rugged, dependable Yale powertrain provides superior durability through its computer controlled engine and transmission, extremely robust gears and shafts and state of the art clutch pack. The transmission, engine, drive axle and steer axle are all isolated in order to lessen vibration and noise within the operator's compartment.

Electrical
The electrical system of a lift truck is responsible for connecting the truck's major nerve centers together. Therefore, the electrical system in the lift truck should be dependable and durable for the most demanding dry/wet and hot/cold operations. There is much sophistication required to be able to control truck functionality.

Yale trucks are recognized for delivering reliable electronics. The Yale CANbus electrical system utilizes digital technology and reduces electrical connections and reduces wiring as well. This results in improved reliability and remarkable serviceability.

Hydraulics
The hydraulics are the forklift's "muscles". They give the necessary force required to raise heavy loads during the entirety of a long shift. All Yale trucks feature industrial grade hydraulic parts. Some of these components consist of: leak resistant O-ring face seal fittings, heavy-duty hydraulic valves, fine micron filters and long lasting tilt and hoist cylinders. The control valve has been strategically placed to be able to prolong component life by reducing 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 machinery have been constructed in such a precise manner that attention to detail has been considered so as to keep the operator as comfortable as possible.
