At Hyster, we have a diverse variety of lift trucks to suit all of your application needs. Like for example, the J45-70XN includes the unique component design and Drop Battery Box which enables this particular model to use pneumatic tires. The use of the pneumatic tires allows for a smoother ride due to less vibrations even if the surfaces are bumpy. This specific electric lift truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for jobs done both outdoors and indoors. The electric motor on these models allows them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to different other engines. Hyster provides a series of three wheel lift trucks as well as four wheel forklifts to suit work spaces which require a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck which surpasses most other kinds of forklifts in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through tight spaces. This line of forklifts is great in limited or crowded work areas, making both unloading and loading easier and safer. This truck also features dual steering wheels to provide an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN model is a four wheel forklift which has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel forklift. The four wheel design on this unit offers a Zero Turning Radius axle which is usually much more comfortable if longer distances need to be covered.
There are many optional features and numerous standard features provided on all Hyster lift trucks. The optional operator selectable performance mode will enable the operator to set up performance levels from job to job. Further, it could enable a manager or supervisor to set the maximum level of performance if safety could be an issue, such as if a new operator is learning how to utilize the truck, helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way.
In some environments, enclosed operator cabs could be a great option for protecting workers from harsh conditions. Sound proofing, an emergency exit and tempered glass help to keep the employee safe. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to improve operator visibility, especially of the tail swing area and the area behind the lift truck. Impact monitors can be installed which disable the unit and need a supervisor or manager to re-enable the truck. This could help to ensure that employees are safely operating equipment. To prevent forklifts from rolling when the driver intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which could be added. The park brake automatically applies itself when the forklift comes to a complete stop.
For various applications, certain ratings might be required. UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating label with approved construction standard tells the driver that the unit has been outfitted 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 utilized in work sites where sparks or arcs from electrical machines can ignite airborne deposits.
