Hyster prides itselves on offering great material handling machinery that are both dependable and reliable equipment which have low long term costs of ownership. We also provide ongoing service for your equipment to keep them functioning smoothly.
Because of their simplicity compared to a traditional DC motor, Hyster has transitioned to the AC pump motors and traction. When utilized in a normal working environment, the AC motor's periodic maintenance intervals can be as much as 500 hours. There is no need to service brush rigging, brushes or motor commutators and there is no maintenance, arching or sparking. Furthermore, when compared to DC motors that give equal output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC pump and traction motors offer greater thermal performance, speed capabilities, 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 greater visibility. They feature the nested channel design and have full-face straight load rollers that are canted at three degrees. Furthermore, brass side thrust plugs enable the driver to make adjustments to the mast easily during maintenance without removing or disassembling the mast. The Vista mast is designed and made by Hyster to accurate specs.
Featured on our forklifts is the most reliable steer axle in the industry for hydrostatic steering. We have made ours to be both reliable and durable, requiring little to no maintenance. For more safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the driver to answer some questions to ensure that the unit has been checked prior to using it. This is an optional feature that means the lift can be programmed not to start if there is an issue which needs attention before lift operation or if the checklist is not done.
