Hyster has transitioned to the AC traction and pump motors due to their simplicity when compared to conventional DC motors. Periodic maintenance intervals for AC motors could be up to 500 hours when used in typical working environments. There is no need to service brush rigging, brushes or motor commutators and there is no maintenance, arching or sparking. Additionally, when compared to DC motors which give the same output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC pump and traction motors provide greater speed capabilities, thermal performance, continued dependability and more torque.
Hyster Vista masts are top of the industry masts which are made of solid steel cast cross members and have a large window for better visibility. They feature the nested channel design and have full-face straight load rollers that are canted at three degrees. In addition, 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 exact specs.
Hyster forklifts feature the industry's most reliable steer axle in the industry for hydrostatic steering. This steer axle requires no or little maintenance and has been made to be both dependable and durable. For more safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the driver to answer certain questions to ensure that the model has been checked before utilizing it. This feature is optional which means the lift can be programmed not to start if the checklist is not done or if there is an issue which needs attention before lift operation.
