Powertrain
Lift trucks should be really tough to last for hours of operation in many extreme settings. While being ergonomic for operators, these machines have to be able to move loads efficiently and fast. The reliable, rugged Yale powertrain offers superior durability through its state of the art clutch packs, computer managed transmission and engine and extremely robust gears and shafts. The engine, transmission, steer axle, and drive axle are all isolated in order to lessen noise and vibration in the operator's compartment.

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

Delivering dependable electronics are a well-known hallmark of all Yale trucks. The Yale CANbus electrical system utilizes digital technology and reduces wiring and reduces electrical connections as well. This results in improved dependability and remarkable serviceability.

Hydraulics
The lift trucks hydraulics are the vehicle's muscles, providing the necessary force to lift many heavy loads. All Yale trucks feature industrial grade hydraulic components. Several of these parts consist of: 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 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 machines have been constructed in such a precise way that attention to detail has been taken into consideration in order to keep the operator as comfortable as possible.
