To suit all of your application requirements, Hyster carries a diverse array of forklifts. The J45-70XN for example has a unique component design and a Drop Battery Box that would allow this particular unit to utilize pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires would enable for a smoother ride by lessening vibrations if the surfaces are bumpy. This kind of electric lift truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for tasks done both outdoors and indoors. The electric motor on these units enables them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to other engines. Hyster offers a series of four wheel forklifts and three wheel lift 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 forklifts in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through tight spaces. This line of forklifts is suitable in congested or limited work areas, making both loading and unloading safer and easier. This kind of forklift also features dual steering wheels to give 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 unit offers a Zero Turning Radius axle that is normally a lot more comfortable if longer distances have to be covered.
There are many optional features and many standard features provided on all Hyster lift trucks. The optional operator selectable performance mode would enable the operator to set up levels of performance from job to job. Further, it can enable a manager or supervisor to set the maximum level of performance if safety might be an issue, such as helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way if a new operator is learning how to use the lift truck.
Enclosed operator cabs could be a great alternative in certain environments to help protect workers from harsh conditions. To keep the employees safe, the enclosed operator cabs provide sound proofing, an emergency exit and tempered glass. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to enhance operator visibility, particularly of the tail swing area and the part behind the truck. Impact monitors could be installed that disable the unit and need a supervisor or manager to re-enable the forklift. This can help to make certain that employees are operating machinery safely. To prevent units from rolling when the operator intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which could be added. The park brake automatically applies itself when the lift truck comes to a full stop.
For various applications, some ratings might be needed. UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating label with approved construction standard tells the operator that the forklift 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 lift truck could be used in work areas where sparks or arcs from electrical machinery can ignite airborne deposits.
