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 regular working environments. There is no need to service brushes, motor commutators or brush rigging and there is no sparking, maintenance or arching. Additionally, when compared to DC motors which give the same output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC pump and traction motors offer greater speed capabilities, thermal performance, more torque, and continued reliability.
Hyster Vista masts are top of the industry masts that 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 which are canted at three degrees. Moreover, brass side thrust plugs enable the driver to make adjustments to the mast easily during maintenance without removing or disassembling the mast. The Vista mast is designed and made by Hyster to accurate specs.
Hyster lift trucks feature the industry's most reliable steer axle in the business for hydrostatic steering. This steer axle needs little to no maintenance and has been built to be both reliable and durable. For more safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the operator to answer some questions to ensure that the model has been checked prior to using it. This is an optional feature that means the lift can be programmed not to start if there is an issue which needs attention before lift operation or if the checklist is not completed.
