Hyster prides itselves on offering great material handling products which are dependable and reliable machinery that carry low long term costs of ownership. We also provide ongoing service for your equipment to keep them operating well.
Due to their simplicity compared to a traditional DC motor, Hyster has transitioned to the AC pump motors and traction. When utilized in a typical working environment, the AC motor's periodic maintenance intervals could be up to 500 hours. There is no arching, sparking, or maintenance, and no need to service motor commutators, brush rigging, or brushes. What's more, these motors develop lower temperatures overall when compared to DC motors which give the same output. 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 large window for greater visibility. They have full-face straight load rollers which are canted at three degrees and feature the nested channel design. Furthermore, brass side thrust plugs enable the operator to make adjustments to the mast easily during maintenance without having to disassemble or remove the mast. The Vista mast is built and designed by Hyster to precise specs.
Hyster lift trucks feature the industry's most reliable steer axle in the business for hydrostatic steering. This steer axle needs little to no maintenance and has been built to be both dependable and durable. For more safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the driver to answer certain questions to make sure that the unit has been inspected before utilizing it. This is an optional feature which means the lift could be programmed not to start if the checklist is not completed or if there is a problem that requires attention before lift operation.
