At Hyster, we carry 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 that enables this model to use pneumatic tires. Utilizing the pneumatic tires allows for a smoother ride because of reduced vibrations even if the surfaces are rough. This particular electric truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both indoor and outdoor jobs. The electric motor on these units enables them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to other engines. Hyster offers a series of four wheel forklifts as well as three wheel trucks to suit work spaces which need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT model is a three wheel lift truck which surpasses nearly all other lift trucks in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through confined spaces. This series of forklifts is suitable in limited or crowded work areas, making loading and unloading safer and easier. This truck also features dual steering wheels to offer an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel lift truck that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel truck. The four wheel design on this particular unit provides a Zero Turning Radius axle that is usually much more comfortable when longer distances have to be covered.
Many features come standard on all Hyster forklifts, but there are lots of optional features available too. The operator selectable performance mode option enables the driver set the level of performance needed on a job to job basis. Further, it can allow a manager or supervisor to set the maximum level of performance if safety might be an issue, such as when a new driver is learning how to utilize the lift truck, helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way.
In some environments, enclosed operator cabs could be a great alternative 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 enhance operator visibility, particularly of the tail swing area and the part behind the truck. Impact monitors could be installed which disable the model and need a manager or supervisor to re-enable the truck. This can help to ensure that workers are operating machines safely. To prevent units from rolling when the operator 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 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 a concern, there is a mechanical main battery disconnect. An EE UL rating means that the lift truck could be utilized in work sites where sparks or arcs from electrical equipment could ignite airborne deposits.
