Hyster is proud in providing excellent material handling machinery that are both dependable and reliable equipment that carry low long term costs of ownership. We also offer ongoing service for all your machinery to keep them running smoothly.
Hyster has transitioned to the AC traction and pump motors due to their simplicity when compared to conventional DC motors. Periodic maintenance intervals for AC motors could be as much as 500 hours when utilized in regular working environments. There is no need to service brushes, motor commutators or brush rigging and there is no sparking, maintenance or arching. Also, when compared to DC motors that give equal output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC pump and traction motors provide greater thermal performance, speed capabilities, more torque, and continued reliability.
The top of the industry masts, Hyster's vista masts are made of solid steel cast cross members. Also, they are designed with a big window for better visibility. They have full-face straight load rollers that are canted at three degrees and feature the nested channel design. In addition, brass side thrust plugs enable the driver to make adjustments to the mast easily during maintenance without disassembling or removing the mast. The Vista mast is made and designed by Hyster to accurate specs.
Featured on our forklifts is the most reliable steer axle within the business for hydrostatic steering. We have built ours to be reliable and durable, requiring no or little maintenance. For more safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the operator to answer some questions to make sure that the model has been inspected before use. This is an optional feature which means the lift can be programmed not to start if the checklist is not done or if there is an issue that requires attention before lift operation.
