Used Clark Propane Forklift Tacoma
Power
Many forklifts are designed to operate on propane gas. Forklifts that use propane are very easy to refill. The gas is stored inside a pressurized tank on the rear of the truck. The propane is pushed into the engine, where it is converted into vapor and then the vapor combines with air. The forklift throttle is used to control the flow of vapor. A spark plug ignites the mixture of air and vapor creating pressure which makes the pistons move. The pistons turn the wheels and run the hydraulic pump.
As the kinds of forklifts which are operated by propane have low emissions and are clean burning, they are suitable to be utilized in warehouses and other buildings.
Hydraulics
What allows a forklift to raise and transport heavy things 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 build up of pressure pushes a piston, that 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 uses its rear wheels to pivot, that enables the forklift to pivot fast on a tight radius.
