Hyster is proud in offering excellent material handling machines which are both dependable and reliable machinery that have low long term costs of ownership. We also offer ongoing service for all your machines to keep them functioning smoothly.
Hyster has transitioned to the AC pump and traction motors because of their simplicity when compared to traditional DC motors. Periodic maintenance intervals for AC motors can be up to 500 hours when used in regular working environments. There is no sparking, maintenance or arching, and no need to service motor commutators, brush rigging, or brushes. In addition, these motors develop lower temperatures overall when compared to DC motors which give the same output. Hyster AC pump and traction motors offer greater thermal performance, speed capabilities, more torque, and continued reliability.
The top of the industry masts, Hyster's vista masts are made of solid steel cast cross members. What's more, they are designed with a large window for better visibility. They have full-face straight load rollers that are canted at three degrees and feature the nested channel design. In addition, brass side thrust plugs allow the operator to easily make adjustments to the mast during maintenance without removing or disassembling the mast. The Vista mast is designed and built by Hyster to precise specs.
Featured on our lift trucks is the most reliable steer axle in the industry for hydrostatic steering. We have built ours to be dependable and durable, requiring no or little maintenance. For added safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the operator to answer certain questions to ensure that the model has been inspected prior to use. This is an optional feature which means the lift can be programmed not to start if there is a problem which requires attention before lift operation or if the checklist is not completed.
