Used Clark Propane Forklift Santa Clarita

Power
There are numerous types of forklifts that are powered by propane gas. Forklifts which utilize propane are easy to refill. The gas is stored in a pressurized tank on the rear of the truck. The propane is pushed into the engine, where it is converted into vapor and the vapor combines with air. The throttle of the forklift is utilized to be able to control the vapor flow. A spark plug ignites the air and vapor mixture producing pressure which moves the pistons. The pistons run the hydraulic pump and turn the wheels.

Forklifts that utilize propane are suggested for use in other buildings and warehouses because they are clean burning with low emissions.

Hydraulics
What enables a forklift to lift and move heavy things from one place to another is the hydraulic system. A pump, tubes and cylinders make up the hydraulic system. The pump forces dense fluid in the tubing and into the cylinders. The pressure build up pushes a piston, that lifts the forks. When the operator lowers the forks, the hydraulic fluid flows out of the cylinders and back into the pump.

Steering
Propane forklifts work well where maneuverability is needed. Not like a car, a forklift uses its back wheels to pivot, that enables the forklift to pivot quickly on a tight radius.
