Used Clark Propane Forklift Surprise
Power
There are numerous types of forklifts that are operated by propane gas. Propane-powered forklifts are simple to refill. The gas is stored in 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 mixes with air. The throttle of the forklift is utilized to control the flow of vapor. A spark plug ignites the mixture of vapor and air producing pressure which makes the pistons move. The pistons run the hydraulic pump and turn the wheels.
Forklifts that utilize propane are recommended for use in warehouses and other buildings since they are clean burning with low emissions.
Hydraulics
What enables a forklift to lift and transport heavy objects from one location to another is the hydraulic system. Cylinders, a pump and tubes make up the hydraulic system. The pump forces dense fluid through the tubing and into the cylinders. The pressure build up pushes a piston, which lifts the forks. When the operator lowers the forks, the hydraulic fluid flows out of the cylinders and back in the pump.
Steering
Where maneuverability is required, propane forklifts are the most suitable. Unlike a car, a forklift uses its back wheels to turn, that allows the forklift to pivot fast on a tight radius.
