Used Clark Counterbalance Forklifts Fullerton

The forklift is a material handling device used to lift and transport loads from one location to another. Each and every forklift component has a specific function. Various parts can be used to transport the load either horizontally or vertically.

Mast
The forklift mast refers to all the components which lower and lift the load. There are different types of masts for raising loads to different heights: simplex, duplex, triplex and quad.

Power Supply
Forklifts have four various ways of being powered: gas, electric, propane and diesel. The battery is located within the cab under the seat. The propane tank is on the rear of the truck. The fuel tank on diesel and gas forklifts is under the rear of the truck.

Cab
Situated within the center of the truck is the forklift cab. This is where the operator sits and accesses all the controls and informational gauges. The gas pedal, steering wheel, tilting controls, brake and lifting controls are all situated within the cab.

Frame
Carrying all the biggest forklift components is the truck frame. This consists of the counterweights situated at the rear which prevents the truck from tipping over when loaded. The frame consists of the overhead guard that protects the operator. The undercarriage holds the axles, wheels and driveshaft.
