Gradall Forklift Parts

Gradall Forklift Parts - The Gradall excavator was the creation of two brothers Ray and Koop Ferwerda. The excavator was created In the 1940's during WWII, when there was a shortage of labourers. Partners in a Cleveland, Ontario construction business known as Ferwerda-Werba-Ferwerda, the brothers faced a huge dilemma when so many men left the labor force and signed up in the military, depleting existing laborers for the delicate grading and finishing work on highway projects. The Ferwerda brothers chose to build a machine which would save their business by making the slope grading work easier, more efficient and less manual.

Their first design model was a device with two beams set on a rotating platform that was affixed atop a second-hand truck. A telescopic cylinder moved the beams back and forth that allowed the fixed blade at the end of the beams to push or pull dirt. Soon improving the initial design, the brothers built a triangular boom in order to add more strength. Moreover, they added a tilt cylinder that let the boom turn 45 degrees in either direction. A cylinder was positioned at the back of the boom, powering a long push rod to allow the machinery to be equipped with either a bucket or a blade attachment.

Gradall launched in the year 1992, with the introduction of the new XL Series hydraulics, the most innovative adjustment in their machines since their creation. This new system of top-of-the-line hydraulics allowed the Gradall excavator to provide high productivity and comparable power to the more traditional excavators. The XL Series ended the first Gradall equipment power drawn from gear pumps and low pressure hydraulics. These conventional systems effectively handled grading and finishing work but had a difficult time competing for high productivity work.

Gradall's new XL Series excavators showed more ability to dig and lift materials. With this series, the models were produced together 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. Traditional excavators make use of an operator to choose a working-mode; where the Gradall system could automatically adjust the hydraulic power meant for the work at hand. This makes the operator's whole work easier and likewise conserves fuel at the same time.

As soon as the new XL Series hydraulics became available in the market, Gradall was thrust into the very competitive industrial equipment market that are designed to deal with pavement removal, excavating, demolition and several industrial jobs. The introduction of the new telescoping boom helped to further improve the excavator's marketability. The telescoping boom gives the excavator the ability to better position attachments and to work in low overhead areas.
