Both diesel and LPG forklifts use a battery to provide the initial electrical power to start the engine. The battery provides electricity to the starter motor.
This component is responsible for turning the engine over to start the combustion process. It receives electrical power from the battery when the ignition key is turned.
This switch is used to engage the starter motor and activate the ignition system. It's usually located on the dashboard or steering column.
While diesel engines use a compression ignition system where the fuel ignites due to compression, LPG engines typically use a spark ignition system. The ignition system includes components such as spark plugs (in LPG engines) or glow plugs (in some diesel engines), ignition coils, and the distributor.
Diesel engines may have a preheat system to aid in starting. This could include glow plugs or an intake air heater to warm up the air entering the engine for better combustion.
Both diesel and LPG forklifts have fuel pumps to deliver fuel from the tank to the engine. In diesel engines, this pump may be a high-pressure unit to ensure proper fuel atomization.
Many modern forklifts have safety interlocks that prevent the engine from starting unless certain conditions are met, such as the operator being seated, the parking brake engaged, or the mast in the upright position.
