Hyster is proud in providing great material handling machines that are both reliable and dependable machinery that carry low long term costs of ownership. We also offer continuous service for all your machinery to keep them working efficiently.
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 used in regular working environments. There is no need to service brush rigging, brushes or motor commutators and there is no sparking, maintenance or arching. Moreover, when compared to DC motors which give the same output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC traction and pump motors provide greater thermal performance, speed capabilities, continued reliability and more torque.
The top of the industry masts, Hyster's vista masts are made of solid steel cast cross members. In addition, they are designed with a huge window for better visibility. They have full-face straight load rollers which are canted at three degrees and feature the nested channel design. Moreover, brass side thrust plugs enable the driver to easily make adjustments to the mast during maintenance without having to disassemble or remove the mast. The Vista mast is built and designed by Hyster to exact specs.
Featured on our lift trucks is the most reliable steer axle in the business for hydrostatic steering. We have built ours to be dependable and strong, requiring no or little maintenance. For more safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the driver to answer certain questions to ensure that the model has been checked prior to utilizing it. 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 a problem that needs attention before lift operation.
