Hyster Europe has added the E2.2-3.5XN models to its new generation of electric forklifts and expanded its warehouse range.

Designed for indoor use, the EXN forklifts come in five models with capacities up to 3.5 tonnes, have compact dimensions and cushion tyres. They are suitable for print, paper and packaging; food and beverage production; manufacturing; transport and distribution applications.

Operator comforts include an adjustable full-suspension seat and armrest, generous foot and storage space, mini-levers designed for easy control, low step height and an integral horn button for easy driving in reverse.

The forklifts have an "advanced design drive axle with power-assisted regenerative brakes and steer axle that features the Hyster Stability Mechanism".

Their electrical system features a CANbus communication network managed by the Pacesetter Vehicle System Manager that continuously monitors truck operation and protects key components. Hyster claims the EXN range is easy to service and provides a 1,000-hour service interval as standard.

The P1.8-2.2 pedestrian-powered pallet trucks will help companies save money through "enhanced performance and energy efficiency".

Meanwhile, a new series of AC pallet trucks for demanding warehouse operations has expanded Hyster's warehouse forklift range.

The P1.8-2.2 pedestrian-powered pallet trucks will help companies save money through "enhanced performance and energy efficiency combined with longer service intervals and exceptional reliability", Hyster says.

Hyster claims the 1.2kW AC traction motor provides excellent performance because of increased acceleration optimising the number of loads moved per hour through variable performance settings.

MOSFET controls that "maximise motor and control efficiency" ensure low energy consumption and increased battery shift life. The pallet trucks are low-maintenance with extended service intervals of 12 months or 1,000 hours.
