Used Clark Propane Forklift Irvine

Power
There are numerous kinds of forklifts which are operated by propane gas. Propane-powered forklifts are easy 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 then the vapor combines with air. The forklift throttle is utilized to be able to control the vapor flow. A spark plug fires up the air and vapor mixture producing pressure that moves the pistons. The pistons turn the wheels and run the hydraulic pump.

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

Hydraulics
The hydraulic system of the forklift is what allows it to raise and move very heavy stuff from place to place. Cylinders, a pump and tubes make up the hydraulic system. The pump forces dense fluid in the tubing and into the cylinders. The build up of pressure pushes a piston, which lifts the forks. When the forks are lowered by the operator, the hydraulic fluid flows out of the cylinders and back into the pump.

Steering
Propane forklifts work well where maneuverability is needed. Unlike an automobile, a forklift utilizes its rear wheels to turn, which allows the forklift to rapidly turn on a tight radius.
