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