Hyster offers a line of four wheel lift trucks as well as three wheel lift trucks to suit work areas which need a tight turning radius. The J30-40XNT model is a three wheel forklift that surpasses nearly all other kinds of forklifts in its ability to manoeuvre through confined spaces and turn sharp corners. This line of forklifts is ideal in limited or congested work areas, making loading and unloading safer and easier. This lift truck also features dual steering wheels to provide an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel lift truck that has manoeuvrability very similar to a three wheel forklift. The four wheel design on this specific unit provides a Zero Turning Radius axle that is usually more comfortable when longer distances have to be covered.
Many features come standard on all Hyster forklifts, but there are numerous optional features available too. The operator selectable performance mode option allows the operator set the level of performance needed on a job to job basis. Further, it could enable a manager or supervisor to set the maximum performance level when safety might be a concern, such as when a new driver is learning how to utilize the lift truck, helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way.
In some environments, enclosed operator cabs might be a great alternative for protecting employees from harsh conditions. Tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit help to keep the employee safe. Dual and panoramic rear view mirrors are available to enhance driver visibility, especially of the area behind the truck and the tail swing area. Impact monitors can be installed that disable the unit and need a supervisor or manager to re-enable the forklift. This can help to ensure that employees are safely operating equipment. To prevent lift trucks from rolling when the operator intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature which could be included. The park brake applied itself automatically when the unit comes to a full stop.
For various applications, some ratings may be needed. UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating label with approved construction standard tells the user that the lift truck has been equipped 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 forklift could be used in work areas where arcs or sparks from electrical machines may ignite airborne deposits.
