Hyster prides itselves on offering great material handling products which are both dependable and reliable equipment which carry low long term costs of ownership. We also offer ongoing service for all your machines to keep them operating efficiently.
Due to their simplicity compared to a traditional DC motor, Hyster has transitioned to the AC traction and pump motors. When utilized in a regular working environment, the AC motor's periodic maintenance intervals can be up to 500 hours. There is no need to service brush rigging, brushes or motor commutators and there is no sparking, maintenance or arching. In addition, these motors develop lower temperatures overall when compared to DC motors which give equal output. Hyster AC traction and pump motors offer greater speed capabilities, thermal performance, continued reliability and more torque.
Hyster Vista masts are top of the industry masts which are made of solid steel cast cross members and have 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. Moreover, brass side thrust plugs allow the operator to easily make adjustments to the mast during maintenance without having to disassemble or remove the mast. The Vista mast is designed and built by Hyster to precise specs.
Featured on our forklifts is the most dependable steer axle in the industry for hydrostatic steering. We have built ours to be dependable and durable, requiring little to no maintenance. For added safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the driver to answer certain questions to make sure that the unit has been inspected before using it. This feature is optional that means the lift can be programmed not to start if the checklist is not completed or if there is an issue that needs attention before lift operation.
