At Hyster, we carry a diverse variety of lift trucks to suit all of your application needs. Like for example, the J45-70XN has the unique component design and Drop Battery Box which allows this particular model to utilize pneumatic tires. The use of the pneumatic tires allows for a smoother ride due to less vibrations even if the surfaces are bumpy. This specific electric truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for tasks performed both outdoors and indoors. The electric motor on these units allows them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to various other engines. Hyster provides a line of three wheel lift trucks and four wheel forklifts to suit work areas that need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT model is a three wheel forklift which surpasses nearly all other types of forklifts in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through confined spaces. This series of forklifts is suitable in congested or limited work areas, making both loading and unloading easier and safer. This truck also features dual steering wheels to give an even more stable and smooth ride. The J30-40XN model is a four wheel lift truck that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel forklift. The four wheel design on this unit provides a Zero Turning Radius axle that is generally more comfortable if longer distances have to be covered.
There are numerous optional features and many standard features provided on all Hyster forklifts. The optional operator selectable performance mode would allow the operator to set up levels of performance from job to job. Further, it could allow a supervisor or manager to set the maximum performance level when safety could be a concern, like for instance if a new operator is learning how to use the truck, helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way.
Enclosed operator cabs could be a great option in certain environments to help protect workers from harsh conditions. To keep the workers safe, the enclosed operator cabs provide sound proofing, an emergency exit and tempered glass. Dual and panoramic rear view mirrors are available to enhance driver visibility, especially of the tail swing area and the area behind the truck. Impact monitors can be installed that disable the model and need a supervisor or manager to re-enable the lift truck. This can help to make certain that employees are operating equipment safely. To prevent lift trucks from rolling when the operator intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature that could be included. The park brake applied itself automatically when the unit comes to a complete stop.
Some ratings might be needed for various applications. The approved construction standards and particularly the UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating labels would tell the user whether the lift truck is 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 could be utilized in work areas where sparks or arcs from electrical machinery could ignite airborne deposits.
