A Clark Forklift Transmission is a major part of the forklift that controls the movement of the machine. It connects the engine and the wheel. Usually, it is connected by a flywheel to the engine crankshaft. When the engine RPM changes, Clark forklift transmission maintains the semblance between the wheel and engine rotation. Both in manual and automatic, the main function of a Clark Forklift Transmission is to allow the engine to operate at a low speed while proving a huge range of output speeds.
