Raw Materials

The cab, body, boom and frame of a telescoping boom rough terrain forklift are usually manufactured by a forklift manufacturer. The most popular material used for these subassemblies is steel, due to its amazing strength. Sometimes aluminum or steel forgings are utilized too. It is common for non-metallic materials such as nylon plastic blocks to be utilized as guides within the boom assembly. The other components are usually bought as finished products and the forklift manufacturer installs them.



Several of the pre-assembled purchased products include the transmission, seat, engine, axles, tires, wheels and hoses, backup-alarm, lights, gauges and hydraulic cylinders. Usually, certain materials such as the fuel and lubricants and hydraulic fluids are bought in bulk. These liquids are added as needed when the equipment is assembled and has passed the rigorous testing sessions.



Design

The narrow and long design of the telescoping boom rough terrain forklift is most common, with a set of wheels at the front of the model and another set situated towards the rear of the machinery. The model's boom is mounted at the rear of the forklift off of a pivot feature that is elevated several feet above the level of the frame. Normally, the cab is mounted on the frame structure's left-hand side. Normally, the cab's bottom half is low and situated between the tires. The hydraulic fuel tank and the fuel tank are mounted opposite the cab on the right-hand side. Along the vehicle's center-line, the engine and the transmission are mounted within the frame.



Beyond this basic configuration, various manufacturers have contributed to their own unique design. On the market nowadays, there are numerous options offered. Certain units of forklifts utilize a single hydraulic cylinder in order to raise the boom, and other models utilize 2 cylinders. Several units utilize a side-to-side hydraulic frame leveling capability. This feature enables the frame to tilt up to 10 degrees relative to the axles so as to enable the machinery to compensate for extreme axle articulation. This is utilized for example, when the tires on one side of the forklift are situated down in a rut and the tires on the other side of the machine are up, located on a mound of dirt.



One more popular design feature comprises fork attachments that are capable of swinging up to 45 degrees both left and right, in order to allow precise load placement.
