At Hyster, we have a diverse array of lift trucks to meet all of your application requirements. Like for example, the J45-70XN includes the Drop Battery Box and unique component design which enables this model to utilize pneumatic tires. Using the pneumatic tires enables for a smoother ride due to reduced vibrations even if the surfaces are rough. This type of electric truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both indoor and outdoor work. The electric motor on these models allows them to be a great zero emissions options to different other engines. Hyster offers a series of four wheel forklifts as well as three wheel trucks to suit work spaces that require a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT model is a three wheel forklift that surpasses most other lift trucks in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through confined spaces. This series of lift trucks is great in congested or limited work areas, making unloading and loading easier and safer. This truck also features dual steering wheels to offer an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel forklift which has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel lift truck. The four wheel design on this model offers a Zero Turning Radius axle that is normally more comfortable when longer distances need to be covered.
Many features come standard on all Hyster lift trucks, but there are numerous optional features available too. The operator selectable performance mode option enables the driver set the level of performance required on a job to job basis. Further, it could enable a supervisor or manager to set the maximum performance level if safety could be an issue, like for instance if a new driver is learning how to use the forklift, helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way.
In some environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a great alternative for protecting employees from harsh conditions. Tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit help to keep the worker safe. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to increase driver visibility, especially of the tail swing area and the area behind the truck. Impact monitors can be installed that disable the model and need a manager or supervisor to re-enable the truck. This could help to ensure that workers are safely operating equipment. To prevent lift trucks from rolling when the driver intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature that could be included. The park brake automatically applies itself when the forklift comes to a full stop.
Some ratings might be needed for various applications. The approved construction standards and particularly the UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating labels will tell the user whether the lift truck is equipped with added resistance to spark creation. If there is an issue, there is a mechanical main battery disconnect. An EE UL rating means that the forklift could be used in work sites where sparks or arcs from electrical machines may ignite airborne deposits.
