Hyster is proud in offering great material handling machines that are both dependable and reliable machines that have low long term ownership costs. We also provide ongoing service for your equipment to keep them working smoothly.
Hyster has transitioned to the AC traction and pump motors due to their simplicity when compared to conventional DC motors. Periodic maintenance intervals for AC motors can be as much as 500 hours when utilized in typical working environments. There is no need to service motor commutators, brush rigging, or brushes and there is no sparking, maintenance or arching. Also, these motors develop lower temperatures overall when compared to DC motors that give the same output. Hyster AC traction and pump motors provide greater speed capabilities, thermal performance, continued reliability and more torque.
The top of the industry masts, Hyster's vista masts are made of solid steel cast cross members. Furthermore, they are designed with a big window for better visibility. They feature the nested channel design and have full-face straight load rollers which are canted at three degrees. Additionally, brass side thrust plugs enable the driver to make adjustments to the mast easily during maintenance without disassembling or removing the mast. The Vista mast is built and designed by Hyster to exact specs.
Hyster lift trucks feature the industry's most dependable steer axle in the industry for hydrostatic steering. This steer axle requires no or little maintenance and has been made to be both reliable and durable. For more safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the operator to answer certain questions to ensure that the unit has been checked before use. This is an optional feature which means the lift could be programmed not to start if the checklist is not done or if there is a problem which needs attention before lift operation.
