At Hyster we are proud in providing all our customers with great machinery which have low long term ownership costs by being both dependable and reliable. We also provide ongoing service for your machinery to keep them working smoothly.
Hyster has transitioned to the AC pump and traction motors because of their simplicity when compared to conventional DC motors. Periodic maintenance intervals for AC motors can be up to 500 hours when utilized in typical working environments. There is no need to service brush rigging, brushes or motor commutators and there is no sparking, maintenance or arching. Furthermore, these motors develop lower temperatures overall when compared to DC motors which 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. Additionally, they are designed with a large window for better visibility. They feature the nested channel design and have full-face straight load rollers that are canted at three degrees. Additionally, brass side thrust plugs allow the driver to easily make adjustments to the mast during maintenance without disassembling or removing the mast. The Vista mast is designed and made by Hyster to accurate specs.
Featured on our lift trucks is the most dependable steer axle in the industry for hydrostatic steering. We have built ours to be both reliable and strong, requiring little to no maintenance. For added safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the driver to answer certain questions to ensure that the unit has been checked prior to use. This feature is optional that means the lift could be programmed not to start if the checklist is not completed or if there is an issue which needs attention before lift operation.
