Hyster has transitioned to the AC pump and traction motors due to their simplicity when compared to conventional DC motors. Periodic maintenance intervals for AC motors could be as much as 500 hours when utilized in regular working environments. There is no maintenance, arching or sparking, and no need to service brush rigging, brushes or motor commutators. Also, when compared to DC motors which give the same output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC traction and pump motors provide 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. In addition, they are designed with a huge window for better visibility. They feature the nested channel design and have full-face straight load rollers which are canted at three degrees. Furthermore, brass side thrust plugs enable the operator to make adjustments to the mast easily during maintenance without removing or disassembling the mast. The Vista mast is made and designed by Hyster to precise specs.
Hyster forklifts feature the industry's most reliable steer axle within the business for hydrostatic steering. This steer axle requires little to no maintenance and has been built to be dependable and strong. For more safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the operator to answer some questions to make certain that the unit has been inspected before use. This feature is optional which means the lift can be programmed not to start if the checklist is not done or if there is a problem that requires attention before lift operation.
