VF series s: ERP 16VF MWB/LWB, ERP 18VF MWB/LWB, ERP 2VF LWB AC Technology Yale AC technology Class H traction motors are suitable for the most arduous applications. Smooth forward and reverse directional changes providing seamless driving action. In the high-performance or HiP setting, AC technology provides increased speed and acceleration, even when fully laden, and increased speed on grade. As well as improving performance, AC technology reduces maintenance and allows service intervals of hours for most components. Brakes Yale has replaced the previous hydraulic service brake system with E-braking, which uses the regenerative braking principle. The brake pedal position is monitored by a sensor whose voltage output determines the amount of braking torque provided by the motors. Yale s E-braking system is selfcalibrating and requires no maintenance. The truck is equipped Automatic YaleStop park brake: spring applied, electro magnetically released park brakes are mounted at the end of both motors. The park brake is automatically set by the control system, so that the brake is always set whenever the truck is not moving, and no traction has been requested. Moreover the park brake provides controllability on ramp applications. Steering E-steering eliminates the hydraulic steering lines from the steer column which is infinitely adjustable in a range of 26º. The E-steering also incorporates the synchronous steering function so the steer knob always returns to the home position which can be selected via the dash display. During cornering the speed of the drive motors is continuously adjusted independently by the traction controller ensuring smooth operation. The Yale VF features a state-of-the-art new customised steer-axle that has increased articulation of the steer wheels, allowing it to turn in smaller spaces than a conventional 4-wheel steer-axle. Performance modes Performance of the truck can be tailored via the enhanced overhead display, with 4 performance modes available to suit the requirements of the application or the preferences of the driver. For maximum speed and acceleration, choose mode 4, or for more delicate manoeuvring and extended battery life, mode 1 is ideal. Your service technician can alter the top speed and acceleration of mode 4, with modes 1, 2 and 3 being automatically adjusted as percentages of setting 4. elo and HiP Settings Yale VF trucks feature an elo energy saving setting (accessible via the dash display with service password), which provides exceptional energy efficient performance for when you require continuous operation over longer periods without recharging the battery. You can choose the HiP high performance setting for higher top speeds and acceleration for the most demanding applications. Improved ergonomics The VF is designed for optimum operator comfort. The operator is seated in an ergonomically designed position for maximum safety, comfort, visibility and ease of operation. The truck features a very low step height, generous floor and storage space, standard grab handle for ease of entry and standard reverse grab handle. The full suspension seat has 8mm of adjustment. A swivel seat option for a superior reverse driving position is available. Both the mini-lever module and the manual levers have an integrated direction switch. Clear footwell allows easy access from both sides. s A full range of Yale 2 stage and 2 and 3 stage masts are available. Yale masts are designed for maximum visibility, with widely spaced channels, lift chains and main lift cylinders. The new Yale Clear View with class-leading visibility is offered on the 1.6 Ton capacity. Battery Choice of 2 battery sizes: DIN and BS. Choice of 2 wheelbases: Depending on the capacity, there is a choice of Medium Wheelbase (MWB), and Long Wheelbase (LWB). The LWB versions provide extra battery space and longer shift life. MWB versions offer improved maneuverability and reduced stacking aisle dimensions. Battery discharge indicator and lift interrupt are standard on all trucks. Battery Exchange There are several different methods available to exchange the battery (should this be necessary), using either a crane, a 2nd fork lift tuck or the Yale purpose designed pallet truck. Battery exchange can be accomplished in under 3 minutes keeping truck downtime to a minimum. Low lifetime costs Lower maintenance costs as a result of less maintenance by E- brakes, electric park brake, E-steering, CANbus and AC technology. Transmission is sealed for life, eliminating the need for service. LED light packages are offered as an option. hours service interval for most components. Auto Regen Braking optimises the shift life of the battery and contributes to an increase in the life of parts.
