Cab

Situated in the middle of the truck is the forklift cab. This is where the operator sits and accesses all the informational gauges and controls. The steering wheel, gas pedal, lifting controls, tilting controls and brake are all situated inside the cab.



Frame

The frame of the truck carries all the largest parts of the forklift, like the counterweights, that are located at the back so as to stop the truck from tipping when loaded. The frame includes the overhead guard which protects the operator. The undercarriage holds the driveshaft, axles and wheels.
