H8-12XD Heavy Duty Forklift Truck

The robust frame and wide drive axle provide rock solid stability and long-term durability when handling loads at full capacity.

The 2-stage mast and carriage are designed for a variety of heavy duty applications. More space between mast channels gives enhanced visibility of the attachment and load. Intelligent design has increased the residual capacity on each truck by at least 400kg for the side shift pin type carriage.

Operators can see through and over the carriage which helps provide ideal levels of visibility for ground level and lorry bed height manoeuvres. Carriages have slimline top bars with an intelligently located valve block.

Reduced “lost load” centres: the more open design results in less weight on the carriage and gets the load closer to the truck.

The 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.

Hyster forklifts are designed with the service technician in mind. Gull-wing hoods provide quick access to key components, and daily checks don’t require tilting the cab.

A tilting cab provides easy access to hydraulic components in seconds. Galvanized, broad, slip-resistant running boards foster quick daily checks, while a large access bay enables easy radiator cleaning.

Built for extreme ambient temperatures ranging from -18°C up to 50°C, the trucks provide an ideal solution for challenging heavy industry operations anywhere in the world.
