HYSTER H230-48HD SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

The Hyster H230-48HD is a heavy-duty rough terrain forklift designed for demanding industrial applications requiring high load capacity and robust performance. It features a Cummins QSB 6.7L six-cylinder diesel engine delivering 155 hp at 2300 rpm and 440 lb-ft of torque at 1500 rpm, compliant with Tier 3 emission standards. The forklift utilizes a ZF WG161 powershift transmission with three forward and three reverse speeds, enabling versatile speed control up to a maximum of 17 mph. The braking system includes a spring-applied dry disc parking brake on the drive axle, complemented by an oil-immersed wet disc service brake, ensuring reliable stopping power in rugged environments. Dimensionally, the forklift measures 16.4 ft from the front to the fork face, with an overall width of 8.4 ft and a height of 11.8 ft with the mast lowered. Its wheelbase spans 10.9 ft, with front and rear tire sizes of 12.00-20 20PR pneumatic tires, providing excellent ground clearance of 9.7 inches and a gradeability of 41%. The turning radius is 15.1 ft, enhancing maneuverability in tight working spaces. The mast is capable of lifting loads up to 23,000 lbs at a 48.1-inch load center, with lift speeds of 71 ft/min and lower speeds of 98 ft/min. The mast tilt ranges from 15 degrees forward to 12 degrees backward for secure load handling. The machine's operating weight is approximately 41,454 lbs, supported by a 42-gallon fuel capacity and hydraulic system fluid capacity of 37 gallons. Electrical systems operate at 24 volts supported by a 102 Ah battery and a 120-amp alternator. The forklift also features a comprehensive operator environment with ergonomic controls, safety systems including operator presence detection, and a robust overhead guard for visibility and protection. This combination renders the Hyster H230-48HD suitable for heavy-duty material handling in construction, manufacturing, and logistics sectors.
