Print Print this article | Send to Colleague

Hyster Co., Greenville, N.C., USA, has launched a new series of sit-down electric lift trucks, the 3-wheel J30-40XNT and the 4-wheel J30-40XN. The Hyster J30-40XNT/XN series delivers lifting capacities of 3,000 to 4,000 lb and a zero turn radius. The compact design and zero turning radius axle of the J30-40XN offers maneuverability similar to a three-wheel truck. The truck's newly-designed operator compartment provides a more comfortable and productive area featuring substantial floor space and a relocated multifunction display for better visibility and load control. The truck's parking brake sets automatically when the truck stops, reducing operator motion.

A redesigned hood provides full battery service access, reducing downtime. Using durable components such as the VISTA mast, the J30-40XNT/XN operates longer with minimal downtime. The lift trucks are available with a 36- or 48-volt, low maintenance AC traction and hydraulic, brushless motor. They also feature four operator performance modes to allow performance to be tailored to the specific application of use and the operator's ability, increasing overall productivity and efficiency.

"Many operational environments require durable, reliable lift trucks to maintain high levels of productivity," said Brett Schemerhorn, VP of dealer sales, Hyster Co. "The new JXN lift truck series will deliver high-quality performance and efficiency-increasing ergonomics to allow customers to maintain the high levels of productivity they've come to expect from Hyster lift trucks." More information is available on the Hyster website.
