To meet all of your application needs, Hyster has a diverse range of lift trucks. The J45-70XN for instance features a Drop Battery Box and a unique component design that will enable this particular unit to utilize pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires will allow for a smoother ride by reducing vibrations if the surfaces are bumpy. This type of electric forklift has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for tasks done both indoors and outdoors. These units' electric motor allows them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to other engines. Hyster offers a line of four wheel lift trucks as well as three wheel trucks to suit work spaces that need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck which surpasses nearly all other types of lift trucks in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through tight spaces. This line of lift trucks is great in crowded or limited work areas, making both loading and unloading easier and safer. This truck also features dual steering wheels to offer an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel lift truck that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel forklift. The four wheel design on this model offers a Zero Turning Radius axle that is usually a lot more comfortable when longer distances need to be covered.
There are a lot of optional features and lots of standard features offered on all Hyster forklifts. The optional operator selectable performance mode would enable the operator to set up performance levels from job to job. Further, it can allow a manager or supervisor to set the maximum performance level when safety might be an issue, such as helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way when a new operator is learning how to use the truck.
Enclosed operator cabs might be a great option in some environments to help protect employees from harsh conditions. To keep the workers safe, the enclosed operator cabs provide tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit. Dual and panoramic rear view mirrors are available to increase operator visibility, especially of the part behind the lift truck and the tail swing area. Impact monitors could be installed which disable the unit and require a supervisor or manager to re-enable the lift truck. This could help to ensure that employees are operating equipment safely. To prevent units from rolling when the driver intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which can be added. The park brake automatically applies itself when the forklift comes to a full stop.
For various applications, certain ratings might 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 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 arcs or sparks from electrical equipment may ignite airborne deposits.
