Hyster prides itselves on offering excellent material handling products that are reliable and dependable equipment which have low long term ownership costs. We also provide ongoing service for all your machinery to keep them working efficiently.
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 used in regular working environments. There is no sparking, maintenance or arching, and no need to service brush rigging, brushes or motor commutators. Additionally, these motors develop lower temperatures overall when compared to DC motors that give equal output. Hyster AC traction and pump motors offer greater thermal performance, speed capabilities, continued dependability and more torque.
The top of the industry masts, Hyster's vista masts are made of solid steel cast cross members. Also, they are designed with a big window for greater visibility. They feature the nested channel design and have full-face straight load rollers that are canted at three degrees. Moreover, brass side thrust plugs allow the operator to make adjustments to the mast easily during maintenance without removing or disassembling the mast. The Vista mast is designed and built by Hyster to exact specs.
Featured on our lift trucks is the most reliable steer axle in the business for hydrostatic steering. We have made ours to be reliable and durable, requiring little to no maintenance. For added safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the driver to answer some questions to ensure that the unit has been checked before use. This is an optional feature which means the lift can be programmed not to start if there is a problem which needs attention before lift operation or if the checklist is not completed.
