Gradall Forklift Part

Gradall Forklift Parts - The Gradall excavator was the idea of two brothers Ray and Koop Ferwerda. The excavator was founded In the 1940's through WWII, when there was a scarcity of labourers. Partners in a Cleveland, Laredo construction company known as Ferwerda-Werba-Ferwerda, the brothers faced a huge dilemma when a lot of men left the workforce and signed up in the military, depleting available laborers for the delicate grading and finishing work on highway projects. The Ferwerda brothers decided to make a machine which would save their business by making the slope grading work less manual, easier and more efficient.

Their initial design model was a device with two beams set on a rotating platform that was attached over 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 improving the initial design, the brothers made a triangular boom so as to add more strength. Moreover, they added a tilt cylinder which let the boom turn 45 degrees in both directions. A cylinder was positioned at the rear of the boom, powering a long push rod to enable the machine to be equipped with either a blade or a bucket attachment.

Gradall introduced in the year 1992, with the introduction of the new XL Series hydraulics, the most innovative adjustment in their machinery ever since their invention. This new system of top-of-the-line hydraulics enabled the Gradall excavator to deliver comparable power and high productivity to the more traditional excavators. The XL Series ended the initial Gradall equipment power drawn from low pressure hydraulics and gear pumps. These traditional systems efficiently handled finishing work and grading but had a difficult time competing for high productivity jobs.

Gradall's new XL Series excavators showed more ability to dig and lift materials. With this series, the models were made together with a piston pump, high-pressure system of hydraulics that showed distinct improvement in boom and bucket breakout forces. The XL Series hydraulics system was also developed together with a load-sensing capability. Conventional excavators make use of an operator to be able to select a working-mode; where the Gradall system can automatically adjust the hydraulic power meant for the work at hand. This makes the operator's overall work easier and likewise saves fuel at the same time.

Once the new XL Series hydraulics reached the market, Gradall was thrust into the very competitive industrial machinery market that are designed to deal with excavating, demolition, pavement removal and different industrial work. The introduction of the new telescoping boom helped to further enhance the excavator's marketability. The telescoping boom gives the excavator the ability to better position attachments and to work in low overhead areas.
