- Fuel bills have been significantly reduced thanks to the Tier 4i /
Stage IIIB Cummins QSB 6.7 engine and performance optimisation
developments from Hyster, such as cooling on demand, RPM
management and alternate engine idle speed
- Operational expenditure has been reduced thanks to the award
winning axle design featured on the new Hyster empty container
handler reduces tyre wear by up to a factor of three. The
differential is mounted in the wheel ends at each side of the axle,
an innovation that allows the wheels to rotate independently,
greatly helping to minimise tyre scrubbing. This not only reduces
tyre change costs, it also supports environmental initiatives
- Optimum energy efficiency is ensured thanks to the ECO-eLo
setting on the Hyster empty container handlers, which feature
- Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) technology so the operators can
fill the fuel tank as normal
- Productivity has been enhanced thanks to the Hyster empty
container handlers, which are capable of handling double
containers, 2 on 5 9’6”
- Excellent operator comfort and visibility is provided by the rearmounted
Vista Cab to support stacking up to 8 high with class
leading lifting speeds. Besides the standard 20’and 40’ containers
at the terminal, 45’ containers are also handled thanks to a new
type of Hyster spreader, which features a ‘shooting’ pin. The
containers are securely attached and can be moved safely and
quickly
- A strong long-term relationship has been developed between
BCTN, Hyster and its local distribution partner thanks to the
excellent level of service, which was considered in the investment
process
