At Hyster we pride ourselves in providing our clients with excellent products that have low long term costs of ownership by being reliable and dependable. We also provide continuous service for your machinery to keep them working smoothly.
Due to their simplicity compared to a traditional DC motor, Hyster has transitioned to the AC traction and pump motors. When used in a typical working environment, the AC motor's periodic maintenance intervals could be up to 500 hours. There is no sparking, maintenance or arching, and no need to service motor commutators, brush rigging, or brushes. Additionally, these motors develop lower temperatures overall when compared to DC motors which give the same output. Hyster AC pump and traction motors offer better speed capabilities, thermal performance, more torque, and continued dependability.
The top of the industry masts, Hyster's vista masts are made of solid steel cast cross members. Furthermore, they are designed with a large window for greater visibility. They have full-face straight load rollers that are canted at three degrees and feature the nested channel design. Furthermore, 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 accurate specs.
Featured on our lift trucks is the most reliable steer axle within the industry for hydrostatic steering. We have made 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 some questions to ensure that the unit has been checked prior to utilizing it. This feature is optional which 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.
