The pneumatic tires would enable for a smoother ride by lessening vibrations if the surfaces are bumpy. This electric lift truck has 4,500 to 7,000 pound capacities for tasks performed both indoors and outdoors. The electric motor on these models allows them to be a great zero emissions options to various other engines. Hyster offers a line of three wheel trucks and four wheel forklifts to suit work areas that need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT model is a three wheel lift truck that surpasses most other kinds of forklifts in its ability to turn sharp corners and manoeuvre through tight spaces. This line of forklifts is suitable in limited or congested work spaces, making both unloading and loading easier and safer. This type of lift truck also features dual steering wheels to give an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN model is a four wheel forklift which has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel forklift. The four wheel design on this unit provides a Zero Turning Radius axle which is generally much more comfortable if longer distances need to be covered.
There are many optional features and numerous standard features provided on all Hyster forklifts. The optional operator selectable performance mode would enable the operator to set up performance levels from job to job. Further, it could allow a supervisor or manager to set the maximum performance level when safety could be an issue, such as helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way when a new driver is learning how to use the forklift.
In some environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a great alternative for protecting workers from harsh conditions. Tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit help to keep the employee safe. Panoramic and dual rear view mirrors are available to improve driver visibility, particularly of the tail swing area and the area behind the truck. Impact monitors could be installed which disable the model and need a supervisor or manager to re-enable the forklift. This can help to ensure that workers are operating machinery in a safe manner. To prevent lift trucks from rolling when the driver intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which can be added. The park brake applied itself automatically when the lift truck comes to a full stop.
For different applications, some ratings may be needed. UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating label with approved construction standard tells the driver that the forklift has been outfitted with added resistance to spark creation. If there is an issue, there is a mechanical main battery disconnect. An EE UL rating means that the lift truck can be utilized in work sites where arcs or sparks from electrical machines may ignite airborne deposits.
