IF IT’S NOT YALE APPROVED, IT COULD BE A PROBLEM WAITING TO HAPPEN.

Sure, a will-fit part might look the same. But has it been tested in real-world conditions on the Yale® model on which it will be installed? Yale has put the competition to the test, and results below show that Yale-approved parts outperform the will-fit alternative - time and time again. Don’t find out the hard way with early part failure and downtime. Insist on Yale-approved replacement parts for your Yale fleet.

Documented procedures and strict quality standards are part of

everyday life at the Yale Parts Distribution Center. As proof, we

proudly maintain our ISO 9001:2008 certification and many of our

parts are UL (Underwriters Laboratories) certified. We also routinely

take part in internal and external verification audits. We constantly

pursue opportunities to improve our operation through a process

called Corrective and Preventative Action (CAPA). This process

provides accountability with detailed, step-by-step documentation

of any improvement initiative until the permanent solution is

implemented. This is an integral part of our certification process and

overall quality focus.

QUALITY PARTS FOR PRODUCTIVE TRUCkS

QUALITY PARTS, COMPETITIVE PRICING, AND LOW COST OF OWNERSHIP.

QUALITY. AVAILABILITY. PRICE.

Ask any Yale® owner and they’ll confirm it: smart design, outstanding durability and reliable productivity have been hallmarks of the Yale brand for more than 80 years.

You depend on your Yale lift trucks to keep your operation efficient and

productive, and that’s why we supply only Yale-approved parts, designed

specifically to keep your Yale trucks performing at their peak. Don’t compromise

that dependability with a poor quality generic will-fit part. Make sure your Yale

trucks stay up to the challenge with Yale-approved parts.

“ Yale-approved suppliers are required to meet our stringent parts specifications. In addition, they are required to meet ongoing conformance testing–so we know every part meets Yale performance standards.”

John DudleyQuality Assurance Manager

Yale engineers have an intimate understanding of your application:

the types of tasks your trucks will be expected to perform, the

range of environments they will operate in and what can cause a

component to fail. They carefully translate these requirements into

design specifications for each component and part. The result?

Yale-approved parts, designed to work together in your trucks for

optimum performance over a long service life.

TRUCKS MADE FOR YOUR APPLICATION DESERVE PARTS MADE THE SAME WAY.

Ensuring that every Yale part meets your high standards is a

commitment that doesn’t end with the design phase. Yale-

approved suppliers know that they have to maintain the highest level

of quality from the first production part right to the end of the part’s

life cycle – meeting our strict quality guidelines, ISO standards and

ongoing conformance testing. So you can be sure that every part

you order, no matter how long you’ve owned your truck, meets Yale

standards for quality, performance and timely delivery.

WE HOLD OUR PARTS TO A HIGH STANDARD—YOURS.

At Yale, we’re committed to getting you the parts you need when

you need them, providing access to over $100M in parts inventory.

Our customer portal makes ordering easy, our sophisticated

Warehouse Management System ensures order accuracy, and

a choice of shipping options, from normal stocking orders to our

Lightning Express-24/7 quick ship program, will get you the parts

you ordered when you need them. Our Guaranteed Availability

Program (G.A.P.) ensures that parts that are normally required in the

first two years of operation will be available from your Yale dealer

within 24 hours or they are free.* And, in the unusual event we don’t

have the part in stock our TCS service will actually pull a part off of

our production line to keep you up and running.

THE RIGHT PART, RIGHT AWAY – GUARANTEED.*

Not only are Yale parts competitively priced, but they come with quality

upon which you can depend. For example, a non-Yale mast load roller

bearing might look and fit fine, but unseen engineering deficiencies could

result in premature impact failure, resulting in expensive downtime and

related damages- adding greatly to operational costs. Invest in a Yale

OEM part, and you’re investing in quality that results in the low cost of

ownership enjoyed by Yale owners and operators.

G.A.P. guarantees that if a covered part is not available the next business day it will be provided to you FREE of charge.**Contact your local authorized Yale dealer for details.

MAKE SURE YOUR YALE TRUCKS STAY UP TO THE CHALLENGE WITH YALE-APPROVED PARTS.
