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 can be as much as 500 hours when utilized in regular working environments. There is no maintenance, arching or sparking, and no need to service brush rigging, brushes or motor commutators. What's more, when compared to DC motors which give equal output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC traction and pump motors offer greater thermal performance, speed capabilities, more torque, and continued dependability.
The top of the industry masts, Hyster's vista masts are made of solid steel cast cross members. Moreover, they are designed with a huge window for greater visibility. They feature the nested channel design and have full-face straight load rollers which are canted at three degrees. Additionally, brass side thrust plugs enable the driver to easily make adjustments to the mast during maintenance without removing or disassembling the mast. The Vista mast is built and designed by Hyster to precise specs.
Featured on our lift trucks is the most reliable steer axle in the business for hydrostatic steering. We have made ours to be both dependable and durable, requiring little to no maintenance. For added safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the driver to answer certain questions to ensure that the model has been checked prior to use. This feature is optional that means the lift could be programmed not to start if there is a problem that requires attention before lift operation or if the checklist is not completed.
