The purchase price of a truck is only a small part of its
overall cost. A lift trucks cost of ownership is the
largest portion of dollars spent and includes such elements as periodic
maintenance, unscheduled repairs,
tires, brakes and fuel costs. The Yale engineers focused on cost
savings with additional engine and transmission
options, world-class serviceability and unparalleled dependability.
World-class dependability of the Veracitor VX series has decreased
the cost to operate these trucks through a selection of rugged
powertrain configurations, radiator design upgrades, reliable electronics
and exceptional hydraulics.
The
Techtronix transmissions offer improved tire and fuel costs
through controlled power reversal. Yales various engine options
offer reduced operating costs. The Mazda 2.0L, 2.2L and GM 2.4L
engines deliver outstanding fuel economy with competitive performance.
Intellix VSM, the smart vehicle system manager maximizes
driver efficiency by managing fast direction changes that reduce
tire spin and tire wear. Intellix VSM maximizes uptime by monitoring
and protecting key truck functions.
Brake life is significantly improved with the optional Auto
Deceleration System. This system automatically slows the truck
when the throttle pedal is released, minimizing brake usage requirements,
and reducing associated brake wear costs.
Yale has improved serviceability of the Veracitor VX and thereby
reduced the labor cost involved with periodic maintenance
and unscheduled repairs. Easy to remove floor plate requires no
tools and offers complete access to the powertrain. Simplified daily
checks and reduced service requirements lead to lower maintenance
costs.
