To suit all of your application needs, Hyster carries a diverse array of forklifts. The J45-70XN for example has a Drop Battery Box and a unique component design that will enable this particular model to use pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires will enable for a smoother ride by lessening vibrations if the surfaces are rough. This specific electric truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for tasks performed both indoors and outdoors. These units' electric motor allows them to be a great zero emissions options to other engines. Hyster offers a line of three wheel lift trucks and four wheel forklifts to suit work spaces that need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck that surpasses nearly all other lift trucks in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through confined spaces. This line of lift trucks is great in limited or congested work spaces, making both loading and unloading easier and safer. This type of forklift also features dual steering wheels to give an even more stable and smooth ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel forklift that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel truck. The four wheel design on this particular model offers a Zero Turning Radius axle which is usually much more comfortable if longer distances have to be covered.
There are many optional features and many standard features offered 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 can enable a manager or supervisor to set the maximum level of performance when safety might be a concern, like if a new driver is learning how to utilize the truck, helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way.
In some environments, enclosed operator cabs could be a good option for protecting employees from harsh conditions. Tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit help to keep the worker safe. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to improve driver visibility, especially of the tail swing area and the area behind the forklift. Impact monitors can be installed which disable the model and require a manager or supervisor to re-enable the forklift. This could help to ensure that employees are safely operating machines. To prevent forklifts from rolling when the operator intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which can be included. The park brake applied itself automatically when the forklift comes to a complete stop.
Certain ratings might be needed for various applications. The approved construction standards and in particular the UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating labels will tell the user whether the forklift is equipped with added resistance to spark creation. If there is a problem, there is a mechanical main battery disconnect. An EE UL rating means that the lift truck could be utilized in work sites where sparks or arcs from electrical machines may ignite airborne deposits.
