To suit all of your application requirements, Hyster has a diverse range of lift trucks. The J45-70XN for instance includes a unique component design and a Drop Battery Box that will allow this particular unit to utilize pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires would allow for a smoother ride by lessening vibrations if the surfaces are rough. This electric truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for tasks done both indoors and outdoors. These models' electric motor allows them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to different other engines. Hyster offers a line of three wheel forklifts as well as four wheel lift trucks to suit work spaces which need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel forklift which surpasses nearly all other kinds of forklifts in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through confined spaces. This series of lift trucks is suitable in limited or congested work spaces, making both unloading and loading safer and easier. This kind of lift truck also features dual steering wheels to offer an even more stable and smooth ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel forklift that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel forklift. The four wheel design on this unit provides a Zero Turning Radius axle that is usually more comfortable if longer distances need to be covered.
Many 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 performance level required on a job to job basis. Further, it could allow a manager or supervisor to set the maximum level of performance when safety might be a concern, such as helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way when a new operator is learning how to utilize the truck.
In some environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a good option for protecting employees from harsh conditions. Sound proofing, an emergency exit and tempered glass help to keep the worker safe. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to increase operator visibility, especially of the tail swing area and the part behind the truck. Impact monitors could be installed which disable the unit and need a supervisor or manager to re-enable the truck. This could 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 applied itself automatically when the lift truck comes to a complete stop.
For different applications, some ratings might be required. UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating label with approved construction standard tells the operator that the lift truck has been outfitted 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 forklift can be used in work areas where sparks or arcs from electrical equipment could ignite airborne deposits.
