At Hyster we are proud in offering all our clients with great products that carry low long term ownership costs by being reliable and dependable. We also offer continuous service for your machines to keep them operating well.
Due to their simplicity compared to a conventional DC motor, Hyster has transitioned to the AC traction and pump motors. When utilized in a normal working environment, the AC motor's periodic maintenance intervals can be up to 500 hours. There is no sparking, maintenance or arching, and no need to service motor commutators, brush rigging, or brushes. What's more, when compared to DC motors which give the same output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC pump and traction motors offer better speed capabilities, thermal performance, more torque, and continued reliability.
Hyster Vista masts are top of the industry masts that are made of solid steel cast cross members and have a big window for better 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 allow the driver to easily make adjustments to the mast during maintenance without removing or disassembling the mast. The Vista mast is built and designed by Hyster to precise specs.
Featured on our forklifts is the most reliable steer axle within the business for hydrostatic steering. We have built ours to be dependable and durable, requiring no or little maintenance. For more 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 is an optional feature that means the lift could be programmed not to start if the checklist is not done or if there is an issue that requires attention before lift operation.
