Hyster prides itselves on offering excellent material handling products that are reliable and dependable equipment that have low long term ownership costs. We also provide continuous service for your machinery to keep them functioning well.
Hyster has transitioned to the AC pump and traction motors due to their simplicity when compared to traditional DC motors. Periodic maintenance intervals for AC motors could be up to 500 hours when utilized in regular working environments. There is no maintenance, arching or sparking, and no need to service brush rigging, brushes or motor commutators. In addition, when compared to DC motors which give equal output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC pump and traction motors offer better thermal performance, speed capabilities, more torque, and continued dependability.
The top of the industry masts, Hyster's vista masts are made of solid steel cast cross members. In addition, they are designed with a big window for better visibility. They feature the nested channel design and have full-face straight load rollers that are canted at three degrees. Furthermore, brass side thrust plugs enable the operator to make adjustments to the mast easily during maintenance without having to remove or disassemble the mast. The Vista mast is made and designed by Hyster to accurate specs.
Featured on our forklifts is the most dependable steer axle within the industry for hydrostatic steering. We have made ours to be both dependable and strong, requiring no or little maintenance. For more safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the operator to answer certain questions to make sure that the model has been checked prior to use. This feature is optional which means the lift can be programmed not to start if there is a problem that requires attention before lift operation or if the checklist is not completed.
