A forklift comprises several integral components working in unison to efficiently lift, move, and store heavier or larger loads:
Truck Frame: Serving as the base, the truck frame holds together the critical components of the vehicle, including the wheels, mast, and counterweights.
Counterweight: This component is responsible for balancing the weight of the lifted load. Typically made of cast iron, the counterweight is mounted at the rear of the forklift.
Power Source: The forklift's power source can either be an internal combustion engine, which can use diesel, liquefied petroleum gas, natural gas, compressed natural gas, or electric forklifts powered by lead-acid batteries.
Carriage: Attached to the mast rails, the carriage serves as the base of the forklift, facilitating easy vertical movement.
Mast: Responsible for raising and lowering the load, the mast features interlocking rails for precise level control and can be fitted with rollers.
