Several of these parts include: heavy-duty hydraulic valves, leak resistant O-ring face seal fittings, long lasting hoist and tilt cylinders, and fine micron filters. The control valve has been strategically placed so as to prolong part life by reducing exposure to heat sources.

Yale's diesel forklifts offer extreme reliability and are known for withstanding harsh working conditions and coming out on top. These machines have been built in such a precise manner that attention to detail has been considered so as to keep the operator as comfortable as they can be.
