At Hyster, we carry a diverse range of forklifts to suit all of your application requirements. Like for instance, the J45-70XN features 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 due to less vibrations even if the surfaces are bumpy. This electric truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both outdoor and indoor jobs. These units' electric motor allows them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to other engines. Hyster provides a series of three wheel forklifts as well as four wheel forklifts to suit work areas that need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck which surpasses most other types of lift trucks in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through confined spaces. This line of lift trucks is great in limited or crowded work areas, making both loading and unloading safer and easier. This truck also features dual steering wheels to offer an even more stable and smooth ride. The J30-40XN model is a four wheel forklift that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel truck. The four wheel design on this specific model offers a Zero Turning Radius axle that is normally more comfortable if longer distances need 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 performance level required on a job to job basis. Further, it can allow a supervisor or manager to set the maximum performance level when safety might be a concern, like when a new operator is learning how to use the lift truck, helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way.
In certain environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a great option for protecting employees from harsh conditions. Tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit help to keep the employee safe. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to improve driver visibility, particularly of the part behind the truck and the tail swing area. Impact monitors can be installed which disable the model and require a supervisor or manager to re-enable the forklift. This can help to make sure that workers are operating equipment in a safe manner. To prevent units from rolling when the driver intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature that could be added. The park brake applied itself automatically when the unit 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 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 lift truck can be utilized in work sites where sparks or arcs from electrical machinery might ignite airborne deposits.
