To meet all of your application requirements, Hyster carries a diverse array of forklifts. The J45-70XN for instance includes a Drop Battery Box and a unique component design which will enable this particular model to utilize pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires will allow for a smoother ride by lessening vibrations if the surfaces are bumpy. This electric forklift has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for jobs performed both indoors and outdoors. The electric motor on these units enables them to be a great zero emissions alternatives to other engines. Hyster provides 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 that surpasses nearly all other types of lift trucks in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through confined spaces. This line of lift trucks is ideal in crowded or limited work spaces, making loading and unloading safer and easier. This kind of forklift also features dual steering wheels to provide an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN model is a four wheel lift truck that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel lift truck. The four wheel design on this particular model provides a Zero Turning Radius axle which is generally much more comfortable if longer distances have to be covered.
Many features come standard on all Hyster forklifts, but there are numerous optional features available as well. The operator selectable performance mode option lets the operator set the level of performance needed on a job to job basis. Further, it could allow a supervisor or manager to set the maximum level of performance when safety might be an issue, like helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way if a new driver is learning how to utilize the truck.
In certain environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a good option for protecting workers from harsh conditions. Sound proofing, an emergency exit and tempered glass help to keep the worker safe. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to increase operator visibility, particularly of the part behind the forklift and the tail swing area. Impact monitors can be installed that disable the unit and need a manager or supervisor to re-enable the lift truck. This can help to make sure that employees are safely operating equipment. To prevent units from rolling when the driver intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature that can be included. The park brake applied itself automatically when the forklift comes to a complete stop.
Certain ratings might be required for various applications. The approved construction standards and particularly the UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating labels would tell the user whether the unit is 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 can be utilized in work sites where sparks or arcs from electrical machines may ignite airborne deposits.
