Hyster prides itselves on offering excellent material handling machines that are reliable and dependable machinery which have low long term costs of ownership. We also provide continuous service for your machinery to keep them running effectively.

Because of their simplicity compared to a traditional DC motor, Hyster has transitioned to the AC pump motors and traction. When utilized in a typical working environment, the AC motor's periodic maintenance intervals can be up to 500 hours. There is no need to service motor commutators, brush rigging, or brushes and there is no maintenance, arching or sparking. Also, when compared to DC motors that give equal output, these motors develop lower temperatures overall. Hyster AC pump and traction motors offer better speed capabilities, thermal performance, continued dependability and more torque.

The top of the industry masts, Hyster's vista masts are made of solid steel cast cross members. Also, they are designed with a large window for greater visibility. They have full-face straight load rollers which are canted at three degrees and feature the nested channel design. In addition, brass side thrust plugs enable the driver to easily make adjustments to the mast during maintenance without disassembling or removing the mast. The Vista mast is designed and made by Hyster to accurate specs.

Hyster forklifts feature the industry's most reliable steer axle in the business for hydrostatic steering. This steer axle requires little to no maintenance and has been built to be both reliable 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 prior to using it. This is an optional feature which 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 completed.
