Due to their simplicity compared to a conventional DC motor, Hyster has transitioned to the AC traction and pump motors. When utilized in a normal working environment, the AC motor's periodic maintenance intervals could be as much as 500 hours. There is no need to service brush rigging, brushes or motor commutators and there is no maintenance, arching or sparking. Moreover, these motors develop lower temperatures overall when compared to DC motors which give the same output. Hyster AC pump and traction 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. 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. Furthermore, brass side thrust plugs allow the operator to make adjustments to the mast easily during maintenance without disassembling or removing the mast. The Vista mast is designed and built by Hyster to accurate specs.
Hyster forklifts feature the industry's most reliable steer axle in the business for hydrostatic steering. This steer axle needs no or little maintenance and has been built to be both dependable and strong. For more 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 that means the lift can be programmed not to start if there is a problem which needs attention before lift operation or if the checklist is not completed.
