Technical Description
The Hyster S155FT DuraMatch Diesel forklift is a robust industrial lift truck designed for heavy-duty applications, featuring a load capacity of 15,500 lbs at a 24-inch load center. It is powered by a 4.5L, 6-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 274.7 cubic inches, delivering 77.8 hp at 2050 rpm and torque of 225 lb-ft at 1300 rpm. The forklift operates with a patented DuraMatch™ electronically controlled powershift transmission offering multiple forward and reverse speeds, incorporating features such as an Auto Deceleration System, controlled rollback on ramps, and controlled power reversals to enhance efficiency, safety, and reduce operator fatigue.
Dimensionally, the forklift measures 9.7 feet from the front to the fork face, with an overall lowered mast height of 8.9 feet and a maximum fork height of 11.2 feet. It has a ground clearance of 4.5 inches, a wheelbase of 6.1 feet, an overall width of 4.8 feet, and a turning radius of 8.5 feet, optimizing maneuverability in confined spaces. The mast provides a 6-degree forward tilt and 10-degree rear tilt, with a lift speed of 104.3 feet per minute and a lower speed of 84.6 feet per minute across a right-angle stacking height of 14.2 feet. The cushion-type tires and an operating weight of approximately 21,252 lbs support indoor operation with durability and stability.
Additional features include oil-cooled wet disc brakes, hydraulic inching, a MONOTROL® pedal for seamless control, and a high-performance cooling system to protect engine and transmission components during intensive operations. The forklift is well-suited for industries handling metals, stone, glass, and concrete in warehouse and production environments, combining power, control, and ergonomic design for productivity and reliability under rigorous conditions.
