To suit all of your application needs, Hyster carries a diverse variety of lift trucks. The J45-70XN for example includes a unique component design and a Drop Battery Box which will enable this model to utilize pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires will enable for a smoother ride by reducing vibrations if the surfaces are bumpy. This specific electric truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both outdoor and indoor jobs. These models' electric motor allows them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to other engines. Hyster provides a line of three wheel trucks and four wheel lift trucks to suit work areas which require a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck that surpasses nearly all other lift trucks in its ability to manoeuvre through confined spaces and turn sharp corners. This series of forklifts is great in limited or congested work areas, making loading and unloading safer and easier. This type of forklift also features dual steering wheels to offer an even more stable and smooth ride. The J30-40XN model is a four wheel lift truck which has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel lift truck. The four wheel design on this model offers a Zero Turning Radius axle that is generally a lot more comfortable when longer distances have to be covered.
A lot of features come standard on all Hyster lift trucks, but there are lots of optional features available as well. The operator selectable performance mode option lets the operator set the level of performance 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 a concern, like when a new driver is learning how to utilize the truck, helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way.
In certain environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a great option for protecting workers from harsh conditions. An emergency exit, tempered glass and sound proofing help to keep the worker safe. Dual and panoramic rear view mirrors are available to enhance driver visibility, especially of the part behind the lift truck and the tail swing area. Impact monitors can be installed that disable the unit and need a manager or supervisor to re-enable the lift truck. This can help to ensure that workers are operating machines in a safe manner. To prevent units from rolling when the driver intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which can be added. The park brake applied itself automatically when the forklift comes to a complete stop.
Some ratings may be required for various applications. The approved construction standards and particularly the UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating labels would tell the user whether the lift truck is equipped 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 may ignite airborne deposits.
