Gradall Forklift Part

Gradall Forklift Parts - The Gradall excavator was the idea of two brothers Koop and ray Ferwerda. The excavator was created In the 1940's during World War II, when there was a shortage of workers. The brothers faced the problems of a depleted workforce because of the war. As partners in their Cleveland, Ohio construction business referred to as Ferwerda-Werba-Ferwerda they lacked the existing workers in order to carry out the delicate tasks of grading and finishing on their freeway projects. The Ferwerda brothers chose to make an equipment that would save their company by making the slope grading task easier, more efficient and less manual.

Their initial design model was a device with two beams set on a rotating platform which was attached on top of a used truck. A telescopic cylinder moved the beams back and forth which allowed the fixed blade at the end of the beams to push or pull dirt. Before long enhancing the first design, the brothers made a triangular boom to add more strength. As well, they added a tilt cylinder which let the boom turn 45 degrees in either direction. A cylinder was placed at the rear of the boom, powering a long push rod to enable the equipment to be equipped with either a bucket or a blade attachment.

1992 marked a momentous year for Gradall with their introduction of XL Series hydraulics, the most amazing change in the company's excavators since their invention. These top-of-the-line hydraulics systems allowed Gradall excavators to provide high productivity and comparable power on a realistic level to conventional excavators. The XL Series put an end to the first Gradall equipment power drawn from low pressure hydraulics and gear pumps. These traditional systems efficiently handled grading and finishing work but had a difficult time competing for high productivity tasks.

Gradall's new XL Series excavators showed more ability to dig and lift materials. With this series, the models were made with a piston pump, high-pressure system of hydraulics which showed noticeable improvement in boom and bucket breakout forces. The XL Series hydraulics system was even developed along with a load-sensing capability. Conventional excavators make use of an operator to pick a working-mode; where the Gradall system can automatically adjust the hydraulic power meant for the job at hand. This makes the operator's overall work easier and likewise conserves fuel simultaneously.

Once their XL Series hydraulics became available, Gradall was basically thrust into the highly competitive market of machinery meant to tackle demolition, pavement removal, excavating and various industrial jobs. Marketability was further enhanced with their telescoping boom due to its exclusive ability to work in low overhead areas and to better position attachments.
