Powertrain
A forklift has to be tough enough to last for numerous hours of heavy use within extreme settings. These machinery have to be able to move loads efficiently and fast while still being ergonomic to the operator. The rugged, reliable Yale powertrain provides superior durability through its state of the art clutch packs, computer controlled engine and transmission and extremely strong gears and shafts. The transmission, engine, drive axle and steer axle are all isolated so as to reduce noise and vibration inside the operator's compartment.

Electrical
The lift trucks electrical system is responsible for connecting the major nerve centers of the truck. Therefore, the electrical system in the lift truck must be durable and reliable for the most demanding cold/hot and dry/wet operations. There is much sophistication needed 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 lessens wiring as well. This results in improved dependability and remarkable serviceability.

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. Some of these components comprise: leak resistant O-ring face seal fittings, heavy-duty hydraulic valves, long lasting hoist and tilt cylinders, and fine micron filters. The control valve has been strategically placed so as to prolong component life by reducing exposure to heat sources.

The Yale forklift could withstand the most extreme working conditions coming out on top with their great reliability. These machines have been constructed in such a precise manner that attention to detail has been considered to be able to keep the operator as comfortable as possible.
