At Hyster, we have a diverse range of forklifts to meet all of your application requirements. Like for example, the J45-70XN features the unique component design and Drop Battery Box which enables this unit to utilize pneumatic tires. Utilizing the pneumatic tires allows for a smoother ride due to reduced vibrations even if the surfaces are bumpy. This particular electric lift truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both indoor and outdoor work. The electric motor on these units enables them to be a great zero emissions options to other engines. Hyster offers a line of three wheel forklifts as well as four wheel forklifts to suit work areas which require a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT model is a three wheel lift truck which surpasses most other lift trucks in its ability to manoeuvre through confined spaces and turn sharp corners. This series of forklifts is great in congested or limited work spaces, making both loading and unloading easier and safer. This truck also features dual steering wheels to offer an even more stable and smooth ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel forklift which has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel truck. The four wheel design on this particular unit offers a Zero Turning Radius axle that is normally a lot more comfortable if longer distances have to be covered.
Lots of features come standard on all Hyster forklifts, but there are lots 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 could enable a supervisor or manager to set the maximum level of performance when safety could be an issue, like when a new driver is learning how to utilize the truck, helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way.
Enclosed operator cabs might be a great option in certain environments to help protect workers from harsh conditions. To keep the workers 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 lift truck. Impact monitors can be installed that disable the model and need a manager or supervisor to re-enable the lift truck. This could help to make sure that employees are operating machinery in a safe manner. To prevent forklifts from rolling when the operator intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which can be included. The park brake applied itself automatically when the lift truck comes to a complete stop.
For different applications, certain ratings may be needed. UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating label with approved construction standard tells the driver that the forklift has been equipped with added resistance to spark creation. If there is a problem, there is a mechanical main battery disconnect. An EE UL rating means that the lift truck could be utilized in work sites where arcs or sparks from electrical machines may ignite airborne deposits.
