In the J10-18XD series, Hyster offers an electric lift truck that can handle the toughest jobs, offering several benefits to the construction industry, such as lower maintenance costs and higher productivity.
With a load capacity of between 10 to 18 tonnes, Hyster® electric Big Trucks are designed to deliver high performance, while at the same time helping businesses to reduce emissions. This is thanks to the electric powertrain, which eliminates the need for diesel fuel and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. This can help construction operators comply with environmental regulations and reduce their carbon footprint.
High-performance, zero-emission alternative
The Hyster J10-18XD series offers a zero-emission alternative to diesel-powered forklift trucks without compromising performance. These trucks have exceptional traction power, acceleration, and manoeuvrability that make them feel like driving a diesel. They can operate in arduous outdoor environments, as well as in cold and hot temperatures. With no tailpipe emissions, these trucks also provide the versatility to operate indoors in warehouses, stores, and loading areas.
The lithium-ion batteries are key to supporting higher performance throughout the charge cycle and long-lasting power, meaning more uptime, contributing to big cost savings. They typically offer a longer life cycle than lead-acid batteries and when matched with the right charger, can be powered up quickly, helping to contribute to less downtime and more productivity for construction materials operations.
The 350-volt lithium-ion batteries require no maintenance, while the electric powertrain also has few moving parts, reducing wear and tear and repair costs.
Robust electric forklift for harsh environments
The Hyster J10-18XD series is built to withstand the harsh conditions that can be found in yards storing construction materials. The trucks have a robust chassis design that protects the components from damage and provides stability and durability. The operator cab is also packed with ergonomic, productivity-enhancing features in an efficient, cockpit-style design that helps keep operators comfortable.
The trucks also support visibility for the operator thanks to the open carriage design, mast chains mounted on the outside of the mast low cowl, and increased space between mast channels and valve block location. On the exterior, sloping counterweights also help enhance visibility of steer tyres for improved manoeuvrability.
Curved, scratch-resistant, tempered glass front and rear windshields, an armoured glass top window, and steel-framed glass doors also provide operators with the all-around visibility they need to operate confidently and productively.
