To suit all of your application needs, Hyster carries a diverse array of lift trucks. The J45-70XN for example includes a Drop Battery Box and a unique component design which would allow this particular unit to use pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires would allow for a smoother ride by reducing vibrations when the surfaces are rough. This specific electric forklift has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both indoor and outdoor jobs. The electric motor on these models allows them to be a great zero emissions options to other engines. Hyster provides a series of three wheel forklifts as well as four wheel forklifts to suit work areas which need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT model 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 confined spaces. This series of lift trucks is suitable in crowded or limited work spaces, making unloading and loading safer and easier. This kind of lift truck also features dual steering wheels to offer 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 lift truck. The four wheel design on this particular unit offers a Zero Turning Radius axle which is usually a lot more comfortable when longer distances have to be covered.
There are lots of optional features and lots of standard features offered on all Hyster forklifts. The optional operator selectable performance mode would allow the driver 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 when a new driver is learning how to utilize the forklift, helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way.
Enclosed operator cabs might be a good option in some environments to help protect workers from harsh conditions. To keep the workers safe, the enclosed operator cabs provide tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to enhance 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 manager or supervisor to re-enable the truck. This could help to make certain that employees are operating machines in a safe manner. To prevent forklifts from rolling when the operator intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature that can be included. The park brake automatically applies itself when the lift truck comes to a complete stop.
Certain ratings might be required for various applications. The approved construction standards and in particular the UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating labels will tell the operator whether the unit 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 forklift could be used in work areas where sparks or arcs from electrical machinery can ignite airborne deposits.
