Powertrain
A lift truck has to be really tough to last for many hours of heavy operation in extreme environments. These equipment have to be able to move loads efficiently and fast whilst still being ergonomic to the operator. The rugged, reliable Yale powertrain offers excellent durability through its computer controlled engine and transmission, really robust shafts and gears 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 within the compartment of the operator.

Electrical
The lift trucks electrical system is responsible for connecting the truck's major nerve centers. Hence, the electrical system in the lift truck should be dependable and durable for the most demanding hot/cold and wet/dry operations. There is much sophistication needed in order to control truck functionality.

Yale trucks are recognized for delivering reliable electronics. The Yale CANbus electrical system makes use of digital technology and reduces electrical connections and lessens wiring too. This results in improved reliability and awesome serviceability.

Hydraulics
The hydraulics are the "muscles" of the forklift. They provide the necessary force needed to raise heavy loads during the entirety of a long shift. All Yale trucks feature industrial grade hydraulic components. Several of these parts include: 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 part life by minimizing exposure to heat sources.

Yale's diesel forklifts provide extreme reliability and are known for withstanding harsh working situations and coming out on top. These equipment have been constructed in such a precise manner that attention to detail has been taken into consideration so as to keep the operator as comfortable as they could be.
