Type:
Autoshift Transmission (controlled)
Powershift Description:
Provides smooth gear changes under load without requiring clutch pedal operation.
Autoshift Features:
Electronically controlled gear selection for optimized performance and fuel efficiency.
Operating Weight:
Typically ranges from 18,000 lbs to 30,000+ lbs (8,165 kg to 13,600+ kg) depending on specific model configuration and lift capacity.
Lift Capacity:
8,000 kg (H10.00XM-12EC) up to 16,000 kg (H16.00XM-H360HD) at standard load centers (e.g., 600mm or 24 inches).
Tire Type:
Solid Pneumatic, Cushion, or Pneumatic tires (depending on application and configuration)
Mast Configurations:
Various mast types and heights available (e.g., 2-stage, 3-stage, duplex, triplex) with different free-lift and overall lowered/raised heights.
Certification Standards:
Designed to meet relevant industry safety standards (e.g., ANSI, ISO, EN) for industrial lift trucks.
Braking System:
Hydraulically activated, power-assisted braking system (wet or dry disc brakes depending on model).
Steering System:
Power steering for ease of maneuverability and operator control.
Operator Protection:
Operator's Cab with overhead guard, potentially enclosed cab options with climate control.
Operator Controls:
Mechanical and electronic controls integrated into the operator's station for lift, tilt, steer, and transmission functions.
Autoshift Controller:
Provides intelligent gear selection for improved efficiency and reduced powertrain wear.
Diagnostic Ports:
Likely equipped with diagnostic ports (e.g., OBD-style) for electronic engine and transmission diagnostics.
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 500 hours or annually, whichever comes first (refer to specific engine manual for exact intervals).
Transmission Fluid Change:
Varies based on operating conditions, often around 1000-2000 hours (consult manual for precise recommendations).
Hydraulic Fluid Change:
Typically every 2000 hours or as indicated by fluid analysis.
Engine Oil Type:
API CH-4 or CI-4 rated engine oil, SAE 15W-40 is common for diesel engines in this range (specific viscosity depends on ambient temperature).
Transmission Fluid Type:
Allison TES 389 or equivalent ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) for Powershift transmissions (refer to manual for exact specification).
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
ISO VG 46 or 68 hydraulic fluid is common, depending on operating temperature and system requirements.
Coolant Type:
Ethylene glycol based antifreeze/coolant with appropriate silicate additive package (e.g., CAT ELC or similar).
Common Wear Items:
Brake pads/discs, hydraulic filters, engine air filters, transmission clutches, lift chains, mast rollers.
Electrical Component Failure:
Sensors, solenoids, and control modules can be susceptible to failure in harsh operating environments. Regular checks of wiring harnesses are beneficial.
Preventive Maintenance Focus
Key Areas:
Regular inspection and replacement of filters (engine oil, fuel, hydraulic, air), ensuring proper fluid levels, and checking for hydraulic leaks are critical for longevity.
Manufacturer History:
Hyster is a well-established global manufacturer of material handling equipment with a long history of innovation and quality.
