I want to start to improve a new model by forklift. Can veryone tell me where can I find some documentation about forklifts design (base concepts, components, etc.) ?
They use a bunch of the Winkle stuff in foundry machines though I think that it's main use is in forklift masts.
From my very small experience with forklifts I got the impression that the brake and clutch were the first expensive items to fail. All the starts and stops.
