Heavyweights from Hyster
Hyster has launched a new range of 25-32 tonne heavy duty forklift trucks and dedicated container handlers.
The H25-32XM range has been developed with special features to reduce energy consumption and save fuel, as well as maintaining driver comfort and concentration throughout a shift.
The trucks only provide maximum power on demand, when it is really needed, with load-sensing hydraulics that ‘feel’ the load weight that is lifted.
The company expects that this will result in savings of between 5% and 15%.
The trucks also offer a ‘dual-function’ carriage, “setting a new standard for large forklift trucks”, according to the manufacturer. The hook-style design with a ‘quick-disconnect’ (dis)mounting feature for the forks enables fast exchange between forks and attachments such as a coil ram.
Sideshift and fork-positioning functions are featured as standard, and include two fork-positioning working ranges, enabling a uniquely wide ‘in-to-in’ or ‘out-to-out’ working range of the forks. The robust masts offer extra strength with a unique ‘6-roller’ construction, for heavy lifts up to 6.20m high.
