Hyster Company announces its new H300HD2S and H330HD2S industrial lift trucks at AISTech 2015, the nation’s largest steel exposition. Suitable for applications such as steel manufacturing, concrete and lumber, the new models are designed to offer 30,000-33,000 pounds of capacity with a shorter wheelbase.

The Hyster® H300HD2S and H330HD2S models come in response to customer demand for superb maneuverability combined with excellent capacity. Featuring an outstanding outside turning radius for the most compact operating conditions, where space is limited and ease of use is paramount, the new trucks allow users to make efficient use of facility space.

Standard to these models is a right-sized Cummins QSB 4.5 L Tier 4 Interim engine mated to a three-speed power-shift ZF WG 161 transmission, which enables smooth shifting, precise inching and fast acceleration. The powertrain is engineered to offer outstanding fuel economy while providing full-rated lifting capacity.
