GC155VX Yale LPG Forklift Specs & Dimensions (2019 - 2026)

Yale Veracitor GC-VX Series

This series of trucks is designed to meet and exceed your materials handling application requirements. The Veracitor truck is geared to minimize your cost of acquisition and the hourly cost of operation, yet provides uncompromised performance.

Yale Veracitor GM Vortec V-6 Engines

feature a rigid cast iron block and main bearing caps. Nodular iron crankshaft is supported on four main bearings. Camshaft is cast iron. Hydraulic valve lifters are utilized to eliminate the need for manual adjustment. GM LPG engines include replaceable exhaust valve seats with stellite coated valves for superior durability. All engines are EPA emissions compliant and feature closed loop emissions regulation systems that continually monitor exhaust and adjust fuel/air mix as necessary. The GM engines also feature an electronic throttle control for precise and accurate control.

Yale Veracitor Optional Kubota 3.8L Diesel Engines

feature 4-valves per cylinder for improved horsepower and torque. The engines feature oil-cooled pistons which help maintain even cylinder temperatures. Built with forged steel crankshafts for durability, the Cummins engines are fully EPA emissions compliant, utilizing a mechanical fuel system controlled by the Intellix VSM.

Fuel System

The standard LPG engine uses a vaporizer/ regulator to convert the fuel from a liquid to a gas. The Engine Control Unit electronically regulates the fuel, air, and spark advance to provide the necessary torque. The engine control unit’s inputs include manifold air pressure, manifold air temperature, engine coolant temperature, accelerator pedal position, throttle position, engine speed, cam signal, and oxygen sensor signal.

Hydraulic Power Steering

Hydrostatic steering provides responsive control and eliminates mechanical linkages for reduced surface shock and simplified maintenance. The steering wheel is 12 inches in diameter with a textured surface grip and spinner knob, and requires only four turns lock-to-lock. The center mounted steer cylinder is located within the confines of the steer axle for protection.

Steer Axle

The steer axle is constructed of cast steel and is rubber shock mounted to the frame for reduced wear and vibration, while allowing excellent stability and axle articulation. The steer axle system features tapered spindle bearings and non-adjustable tie rod end for durability.

Drive Axle

The drive axles are designed to withstand heavy loads and absorb shocks. The wheel hubs rotate on large tapered roller bearings. The drive shaft transmits rotational torque to the drive axle from the engine and transmission. Transmission torque is distributed through planetary gear reduction and an industrial hypoid ring gear and pinion differential assembly. The drive axle is a “self contained” assembly that is isolated from the transmission by the drive shaft and heavy duty rubber isolators. The axle shafts utilize a “rolled fillet” root spline design for increased resistance to torsion stress. A magnetic sump plug is used to collect any metal particles that are circulating in the axle oil, preventing component wear.

Transmissions

There are two transmission selections available that will handle a wide variety of materials handling applications. The standard electronic powershift transmission features two forward and two reverse speeds with electronic shift control, smooth hydraulic inching, hand and start switch, and anti-restart protection. A single pedal controls both inching and braking. Optional dual inch/brake pedals are available for operators who prefer this design. A 100 mesh suction and a 10 micron return line filtration protect the transmission from abrasive contaminants. The Techtronix 332 includes all the features of the standard electronic powershift transmission. In addition, Auto Deceleration is accomplished through the controlled application of the clutch packs. Tire spin is reduced by precisely regulating engine speed during controlled power reversals (below 7 mph). Inching is controlled electronically. Techtronix 332 transmission features three speeds forward and two speeds in reverse for excellent gradeability and drawbar pull while allowing top travel speeds for maximum productivity.

Hydraulic System

Incorporates a gear type pump with a cast iron body for quiet efficiency. The system is protected from overloads by a main relief valve for the lift circuit and a secondary relief valve for tilt and auxiliary functions. Oil is double filtered through a 100 mesh suction line strainer and 10 micron return line filter. The hydraulic tank is integrated into the frame. For Accutouch mini-lever, electro-hydraulic controls, an emergency lowering valve is provided to allow the load to be lowered in the event of power loss. On-ring face seal fittings reduce the potential of hydraulic connections.

Cooling System

employs a 19” (diameter) blade pusher-type fan made of steel. A permanently lubricated water pump and a high capacity, cross-flow radiator ensure rapid heat dissipation. The sealed cooling system operates at a pressure of 15 psi and includes a coolant recovery tank for visual inspection of coolant level. The standard combi-cooler radiator features an externally mounted transmission oil cooler for increased heat transfer capability. Both the radiator and oil cooler are built with squarewave construction to reduce clogging from debris and are soft-mounted for excellent durability.
