Powertrain
Forklifts should be tough enough to last for hours of operation in numerous extreme environments. 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 state of the art clutch packs, computer managed transmission and engine and extremely robust shafts and gears. The engine, transmission, steer axle, and drive axle are all isolated in order to lessen noise and vibration inside the compartment of the operator.

Electrical
The lift truck's electrical system is responsible for connecting the truck's major nerve centers together. Thus, the electrical system within 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 known for delivering reliable electronics. The Yale CANbus electrical system employs digital technology and reduces electrical connections and lessens wiring too. This results in improved reliability and remarkable serviceability.

Hydraulics
The forklifts hydraulics are the vehicle's muscles, giving the necessary force to lift numerous heavy loads. All Yale trucks feature industrial grade hydraulic components. Some of these parts include: heavy-duty hydraulic valves, leak resistant O-ring face seal fittings, long lasting hoist and tilt cylinders, and fine micron filters. The control valve has been strategically placed so as to prolong component 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 machinery have been built in such a precise manner that attention to detail has been considered to be able to keep the operator as comfortable as possible.
