At Hyster, we carry a diverse range of lift trucks to meet all of your application requirements. Like for example, the J45-70XN includes the unique component design and Drop Battery Box that enables this model to utilize pneumatic tires. Utilizing the pneumatic tires allows for a smoother ride because of less vibrations even when the surfaces are rough. This type of electric lift truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both outdoor and indoor jobs. The electric motor on these units enables them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to various other engines. Hyster offers a series of three wheel lift trucks as well as four wheel lift trucks to suit work areas that need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck that surpasses most other lift trucks in its ability to manoeuvre through confined spaces and turn sharp corners. This series of lift trucks is ideal in crowded or limited work spaces, making both unloading and loading easier and safer. This kind of forklift also features dual steering wheels to provide an even more stable and smooth ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel lift truck that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel lift truck. The four wheel design on this model provides a Zero Turning Radius axle which is usually a lot more comfortable if longer distances need to be covered.
Numerous features come standard on all Hyster forklifts, but there are a lot of optional features available too. The operator selectable performance mode option lets the operator set the level of performance required on a job to job basis. Further, it can allow a supervisor or manager to set the maximum level of performance if safety could be an issue, like for example if a new operator is learning how to use the truck, helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way.
Enclosed operator cabs might be a great option in some environments to help protect workers from harsh conditions. To keep the workers safe, the enclosed operator cabs provide an emergency exit, tempered glass and sound proofing. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to improve operator visibility, specially of the area behind the forklift and the tail swing area. Impact monitors could be installed which disable the model and require a supervisor or manager to re-enable the lift truck. This could help to make certain that workers are safely operating machinery. To prevent lift trucks from rolling when the driver intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature that can be added. The park brake applied itself automatically when the unit comes to a complete stop.
Certain ratings may be required for various applications. The approved construction standards and in particular the UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating labels will tell the user whether the forklift is 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 can be utilized in work sites where arcs or sparks from electrical machinery can ignite airborne deposits.
