To meet all of your application requirements, Hyster has a diverse array of lift trucks. The J45-70XN for instance has a unique component design and a Drop Battery Box that would enable this unit to use pneumatic tires. The pneumatic tires would enable for a smoother ride by reducing vibrations when the surfaces are rough. This particular electric lift truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for both outdoor and indoor jobs. These models' electric motor enables them to be a great zero emissions options to other engines. Hyster provides a series of four wheel lift trucks and three wheel lift trucks to suit work areas that need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT model is a three wheel lift truck that surpasses most other types of forklifts in its ability to manoeuvre through confined spaces and turn sharp corners. This series of lift trucks is great in limited or congested work areas, making unloading and loading safer and easier. This lift 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 lift truck. The four wheel design on this specific model provides a Zero Turning Radius axle that is usually more comfortable if longer distances need to be covered.
There are a lot of optional features and a lot of standard features provided on all Hyster forklifts. The optional operator selectable performance mode would enable the operator to set up levels of performance from job to job. Further, it could allow a manager or supervisor to set the maximum performance level when safety might be a concern, like for example helping the driver to learn in a more controlled way if a new operator is learning how to use the forklift.
In certain environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a great option for protecting employees from harsh conditions. Tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit help to keep the employee safe. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to increase driver visibility, especially of the tail swing area and the part behind the truck. Impact monitors can be installed that disable the unit and require a manager or supervisor to re-enable the truck. This can help to make certain that employees are operating machinery in a safe manner. To prevent units from rolling when the operator intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature that can be added. The park brake applied itself automatically when the forklift comes to a full stop.
For various applications, certain ratings may be needed. UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating label with approved construction standard tells the operator that the unit has been outfitted with added resistance to spark creation. If there is a concern, there is a mechanical main battery disconnect. An EE UL rating means that the lift truck could be utilized in work areas where arcs or sparks from electrical machinery can ignite airborne deposits.
