To meet all of your application needs, Hyster carries a diverse variety of forklifts. The J45-70XN for instance includes a Drop Battery Box and a unique component design which would allow this particular unit to utilize pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires will enable for a smoother ride by reducing vibrations if the surfaces are rough. This type of electric truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both outdoor and indoor work. These models' electric motor allows them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to other engines. Hyster provides a series of four wheel lift trucks as well as three wheel forklifts to suit work spaces which need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT model is a three wheel forklift which surpasses most other lift trucks in its ability to manoeuvre through tight spaces and turn sharp corners. This line of lift trucks is suitable in crowded or limited work spaces, making both loading and unloading easier and safer. This type of forklift also features dual steering wheels to offer an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN model is a four wheel lift truck which has manoeuvrability really similar to a three wheel truck. The four wheel design on this model provides a Zero Turning Radius axle which is normally a lot more comfortable when 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 level of performance needed on a job to job basis. Further, it could enable a manager or supervisor to set the maximum performance level if safety might be an issue, like for instance helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way when a new operator is learning how to use the lift truck.
Enclosed operator cabs might be a great option in some environments to help protect employees from harsh conditions. To keep the employees safe, the enclosed operator cabs provide an emergency exit, tempered glass and sound proofing. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to enhance driver visibility, particularly of the area behind the forklift and the tail swing area. Impact monitors can be installed which disable the unit and require a supervisor or manager to re-enable the lift truck. This could help to make sure 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 included. The park brake applied itself automatically when the lift truck comes to a complete stop.
For different applications, certain ratings might be required. UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating label with approved construction standard tells the driver that the lift truck has been outfitted 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 can be used in work sites where arcs or sparks from electrical equipment may ignite airborne deposits.
