Used Clark Propane Forklift Palmdale

Power
There are numerous types of forklifts which are operated by propane gas. Forklifts that use propane are easy to refill. The gas is stored inside a pressurized tank on the back 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 used to control the flow of vapor. A spark plug ignites the air and vapor mixture producing pressure that moves the pistons. The pistons run the hydraulic pump and turn the wheels.

Since the kinds of forklifts that are operated by propane are clean burning and have low emissions, they are best to be used within warehouses and other buildings.

Hydraulics
The forklift's hydraulic system is what enables it to raise and move very heavy things from location to location. 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 raises 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 required. Not like a car, a forklift makes use of its back wheels to turn, which enables the forklift to pivot fast on a tight radius.
