HYSTER S135FT DURAMATCH DIESEL SIT-DOWN FORKLIFT

Technical Description

The Hyster S135FT DuraMatch Diesel is a robust cushion tire forklift engineered for demanding industrial applications including primary metals, stone, clay, glass, and concrete products handling. This powerful 4-wheel lift truck delivers 77.8 horsepower from its Kubota 4.5L six-cylinder diesel engine, producing 225 ft-lbs of torque at 2300 RPM for exceptional load manipulation and gradeability. The forklift features a 13,500-pound capacity at a 24-inch load center, with a maximum lift height of 11.2 feet and impressive lifting speed of 104.3 feet per minute. The patented DuraMatch transmission distinguishes this model through its Auto Deceleration System, controlled rollback on ramps, and controlled power reversals, significantly reducing operator fatigue and product damage while enhancing load efficiency. Weighing 19,345.6 pounds, the S135FT operates effectively with cushion tires ideal for indoor warehouse environments, maintaining excellent maneuverability with an 8.5-foot turning radius and 12.5 mph maximum travel speed. The integrated Pacesetter VSM industrial on-board computer allows operators to adjust and optimize performance parameters for specific applications. Additional features include a 2-stage limited free-lift mast with 6 degrees forward and 10 degrees backward tilt capability, oil-cooled wet disc brakes, and optional on-demand cooling systems that automatically reverse fan direction every 20 minutes to prevent overheating and extend component life. Electronic powershift transmission provides hydraulic inching and smooth operation, while the maintenance-free emissions system eliminates fluid additions or filter cleaning requirements, making this diesel forklift an economical and reliable solution for heavy-duty material handling operations.
