Hyster P1.3 pallet truck
Hyster's new low duty P1.3 is designed to bridge the gap between hand pallet trucks and powered pallet trucks. It runs off two 12V batteries and plugs directly into a standard electric socket to re-charge.

Its battery capacity allows the P1.3 to work for up to two hours. The P1.3 also shares many of the characteristics of the P1.6, including a durable frame with integrated welded forks and a reinforced bumper section. Heavy-duty, tandem load wheels provide load stability over uneven surfaces and include anti-roll back.

The P1.3 is manoeuvred in tight spaces by the same tiller head design featured on the premium Hyster pallet truck range. The MOSFET high frequency Combi controller controls traction and hydraulics, allowing progressive speed control and energy efficiency. Other features include regenerative braking, hourmeter and battery discharge indicator (option), and creep speed.

The P1.3 is offered with extended service intervals (12 months or 1,000 hours) and various options including load backrest, a variety of fork sizes, lateral protection plates and extended warranty of 36 months or 3,000 hours.
