To suit all of your application needs, Hyster carries a diverse array of lift trucks. The J45-70XN for instance features a unique component design and a Drop Battery Box that will enable this particular model to utilize pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires will enable for a smoother ride by reducing vibrations when the surfaces are bumpy. This electric truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both indoor and outdoor work. These models' electric motor enables them to be a great zero emissions options to other engines. Hyster provides a line of three wheel lift trucks and four wheel forklifts to suit work spaces which need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck that surpasses nearly all other forklifts in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through confined spaces. This line of forklifts is ideal in crowded or limited work spaces, making both unloading and loading safer and easier. This type of truck also features dual steering wheels to provide 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 forklift. The four wheel design on this specific unit offers a Zero Turning Radius axle which is generally much more comfortable if longer distances need to be covered.
Numerous features come standard on all Hyster forklifts, but there are numerous optional features available too. The operator selectable performance mode option allows the operator set the level of performance required on a job to job basis. Further, it can allow a supervisor or manager to set the maximum level of performance when safety might be an issue, like for example when a new operator is learning how to utilize the lift truck, helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way.
In certain environments, enclosed operator cabs could be a good option for protecting employees from harsh conditions. Sound proofing, an emergency exit and tempered glass help to keep the employee safe. Dual and panoramic rear view mirrors are available to increase operator visibility, particularly of the part behind the truck and the tail swing area. Impact monitors could be installed that disable the model and require a supervisor or manager to re-enable the truck. This could help to make certain that workers are safely operating equipment. To prevent units from rolling when the operator intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which can be added. The park brake automatically applies itself when the unit comes to a full stop.
Some ratings may be needed for different applications. The approved construction standards and in particular the UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating labels would tell the operator whether the forklift is 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 forklift could be utilized in work areas where arcs or sparks from electrical machinery can ignite airborne deposits.
