Used Clark Propane Forklift Rancho Cucamonga
Power
Many forklifts are designed to operate on propane gas. Forklifts which utilize propane are simple to refill. The gas is stored in a pressurized tank on the truck's back. The propane is pushed into the engine, where it is converted into vapor and the vapor mixes with air. The forklift throttle is used to control the vapor flow. A spark plug fires up the mix of vapor and air producing pressure that makes the pistons move. The pistons turn the wheels and power the hydraulic pump.
Because the kinds of forklifts which are operated by propane are clean burning and have low emissions, they are suitable to be used in other buildings and warehouses.
Hydraulics
The hydraulic system of the forklift is what allows it to raise and transport very heavy stuff from location to location. A pump, tubes and cylinders make up the hydraulic system. The pump forces dense fluid through the tubing and into the cylinders. The build up of pressure pushes a piston, which 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 makes use of its back wheels to turn, which enables the forklift to turn fast on a tight radius.
