Heavy Forklifts
With their new series of heavy forklift trucks, Hyundai is targeting a new customer base. A variety of businesses, from the natural stone and concrete industries, to the steel industry, the railway sector and the transportation of heavy goods in the ports are all working with and depending on heavy duty machines. The efficiency and power offered by the units keep cost of operation low and offer the best conditions for economical work. These types of equipment could excel in the nearly all demanding environments.
The Cummins diesel engines ranging from 162 horse-power to 250hp provides the required power on all of the large capacity units. TierIII emission standards are met with engines which have 6 cylinders. These kinds of forklifts could take the truck up to a speed of 35 km/h. It provides for a high climbing ability on rough terrain and steep slopes and provides great acceleration as well.
The operator could utilize a switch in order to pick 1 of 2 driving modes. When in "Power" mode, full power is available for work on heavy loads or difficult terrain. In the "STP" mode, the trucks could save lots of fuel during light-duty work. Moreover, just by pressing a switch, the operator could automatically maintain a chosen speed without touching the accelerator pedal. This is an added fuel saving function. The fully automatic transmission of the forklift gently shifts through the gears, making the equipment simple to maneuver and comfortable to operate.
A comfortable and spacious working place is provided by a well-ventilated cabin. The cabin combines high performance with fatigue-free work. The powerful air conditioning and heating system helps make sure that the operator is comfortable inside. The cab was ergonomically designed to provide a bird's eye view of all of the controls, in addition to the overall safety of the unit. A CD player and an MP3 player put the finishing touches on providing the nice atmosphere which Hyundai machinery are reputed to have.
