Hyster has transitioned to the AC traction and pump motors because of their simplicity when compared to conventional DC motors. Periodic maintenance intervals for AC motors can be up to 500 hours when used in regular 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 equal output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC pump and traction motors provide greater speed capabilities, thermal performance, more torque, and continued reliability.
The top of the industry masts, Hyster's vista masts are made of solid steel cast cross members. Also, they are designed with a huge window for greater 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 enable the operator to easily make adjustments to the mast during maintenance without having to remove or disassemble the mast. The Vista mast is designed and built by Hyster to accurate specs.
Hyster lift trucks feature the industry's most dependable steer axle in the business for hydrostatic steering. This steer axle needs little to no maintenance and has been built to be dependable and durable. For more safety, the Operator Pre-Shift Checklist requires the operator to answer some questions to make sure that the model has been checked prior to use. This is an optional feature that means the lift could be programmed not to start if there is a problem which needs attention before lift operation or if the checklist is not done.
