HEAVY-DUTY APPLICATIONS

The high-performance powertrain has built-in engine and transmission protection systems, ensuring maximum reliability and a low total cost of ownership. Fast travel speeds and lifting speeds help contribute to reduced operating costs during a shift with class-leading lift speeds of up to 0.28 m/s. Stage IV compliant, producing lower emissions and offering up to 20% fuel savings compared to the previous generation model, significantly reduces lifetime costs. Whilst the Stage IV version features the Cummins QSL9 8.9L (up to 363 hp, 271kW) diesel engine.

In addition to the Cummins engine technologies, Hyster has also introduced new performance optimisation developments such as cooling on demand, load sensing hydraulics (power on demand), RPM management and alternate engine idle speed to help further reduce the total fuel consumption in most applications.

The heavy duty industrial use engine comes with a cast iron cylinder block and no HT (high tension) wires, distributor caps or rotors. Super quick glow plugs allow the engine to start quickly and reliably under cold conditions, the cold start device delivering a cleaner exhaust
by advancing the fuel injection timing based on water temperature. Whilst emissions have been reduced by controlling fuel injection timing according to engine load.

New performance optimisation developments are included such as cooling on demand, load sensing hydraulics (power on demand), RPM management and alternate engine idle speed to help further reduce the total fuel consumption in most applications. ECO-eLo performance mode reduces energy consumption by up to 15% compared with previous generation engines and without compromising productivity.

The new ergonomically design high visibility cab puts greater productivity within easy reach. Equipped with an armoured glass top window, curved front and rear windows and steel doors with tempered glass, the new operator cab provides excellent all-around visibility. Inside the cab there is more space with the largest entry area in the industry, more control with a full-colour screen displaying performance data at the operator’s fingertips and more comfort with an exclusive lateral sliding seat, adjustable steering column and foot pedal, plus ergonomic controls.

Trucks feature performance optimisation developments such as cooling on demand, load sensing hydraulics, RPM management, alternate engine idle speed, multiple oil-immersed brakes with cooling system ensure reliability and low cost of operation to help further reduce the total fuel consumption in most applications. The width of the heavy duty drive axle (4.20m over tyres), with reinforced spindles with double reduction provides stability and durability when handling the heaviest loads.
