To meet all of your application needs, Hyster carries a diverse range of lift trucks. The J45-70XN for example includes a Drop Battery Box and a unique component design that would enable this unit to utilize pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires would 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 tasks performed both outdoors and indoors. These units' electric motor enables them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to other engines. Hyster offers a line of four wheel forklifts as well as three wheel trucks to suit work spaces which need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck which surpasses nearly all other kinds of lift trucks in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through tight spaces. This line of forklifts is great in limited or congested work areas, making both loading and unloading easier and safer. This type of forklift also features dual steering wheels to provide an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel lift truck which has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel forklift. The four wheel design on this specific model offers a Zero Turning Radius axle which is generally a lot more comfortable if longer distances have to be covered.
Lots of features come standard on all Hyster lift trucks, but there are many optional features available too. The operator selectable performance mode option enables the operator set the performance level needed on a job to job basis. Further, it can enable a manager or supervisor to set the maximum level of performance when safety might be an issue, like helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way when a new driver is learning how to use the truck.
In some environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a good alternative for protecting workers 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 improve driver visibility, particularly of the tail swing area and the part behind the lift truck. Impact monitors could be installed that disable the model and require a supervisor or manager to re-enable the lift truck. This can help to ensure that workers are safely operating equipment. To prevent lift trucks from rolling when the operator intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which could be included. The park brake automatically applies itself when the forklift comes to a complete stop.
For different applications, some ratings may be needed. 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 a concern, there is a mechanical main battery disconnect. An EE UL rating means that the lift truck can be used in work sites where arcs or sparks from electrical equipment could ignite airborne deposits.
