Used Clark Propane Forklift Escondido
Power
Numerous forklifts are made to operate on propane gas. Forklifts that use propane are really easy to refill. The gas is stored in 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 utilized to be able to control the flow of vapor. A spark plug ignites the vapor and air mixture producing pressure which moves the pistons. The pistons turn the wheels and run the hydraulic pump.
Because the types of forklifts which are operated by propane are clean burning and have low emissions, they are suitable to be used in warehouses and other buildings.
Hydraulics
What allows a forklift to lift and move heavy stuff from one location to another is the hydraulic system. Tubes, cylinders and a pump make up the hydraulic system. The pump forces dense fluid in the tubing and into the cylinders. The pressure build up pushes a piston, which raises the forks. When the forks are lowered by the operator, the hydraulic fluid flows out of the cylinders and back in the pump.
Steering
Where maneuverability is required, propane forklifts are the most suitable. Not like an automobile, a forklift uses its back wheels to pivot, which allows the forklift to quickly turn on a tight radius.
