At Hyster, we have a diverse array of forklifts to meet all of your application requirements. Like for example, the J45-70XN has the unique component design and Drop Battery Box which enables this model to utilize pneumatic tires. The use of the pneumatic tires allows for a smoother ride due to less vibrations even when the surfaces are bumpy. This type of electric forklift has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for tasks done both indoors and outdoors. These models' electric motor enables them to be a great zero emissions options to other engines. Hyster provides a line of four wheel lift trucks as well as three wheel trucks to suit work areas which require a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck that surpasses most other types of forklifts in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through confined spaces. This series of forklifts is great in limited or congested work areas, making loading and unloading safer and easier. This truck also features dual steering wheels to give an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel forklift that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel truck. The four wheel design on this model provides a Zero Turning Radius axle that is usually more comfortable if longer distances have to be covered.
A lot of features come standard on all Hyster lift trucks, but there are a lot of optional features available too. The operator selectable performance mode option lets the operator set the performance level required on a job to job basis. Further, it can allow a manager or supervisor to set the maximum performance level when safety could be a concern, like for example helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way if a new operator is learning how to use the lift truck.
Enclosed operator cabs could be a great option in certain environments to help protect employees from harsh conditions. To keep the employees safe, the enclosed operator cabs provide tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit. Dual and panoramic rear view mirrors are available to improve driver visibility, specially of the tail swing area and the area behind the forklift. Impact monitors can be installed which disable the unit and require a manager or supervisor to re-enable the truck. This could help to make sure that workers are operating equipment safely. To prevent units from rolling when the operator intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature that can be added. The park brake automatically applies itself when the unit comes to a complete stop.
For various applications, certain ratings may be needed. UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating label with approved construction standard tells the operator that the unit has been outfitted with added resistance to spark creation. If there is a concern, there is a mechanical main battery disconnect. An EE UL rating means that the forklift could be utilized in work areas where arcs or sparks from electrical equipment could ignite airborne deposits.
