The J30-40XNT unit is a three wheel lift truck that surpasses most other kinds of forklifts in its ability to manoeuvre through tight spaces and turn sharp corners. This series of lift trucks is great in limited or congested work areas, making both unloading and loading safer and easier. This type of lift truck also features dual steering wheels to provide an even smoother and more stable ride. The J30-40XN unit is a four wheel lift truck which has manoeuvrability really similar to a three wheel truck.

There are a lot of optional features and many standard features provided on all Hyster lift trucks. The optional operator selectable performance mode will allow the driver to set up levels of performance from job to job. Further, it can allow a supervisor or manager to set the maximum level of performance when safety might be an issue, like for instance helping the operator to learn in a more controlled way when a new operator is learning how to use the forklift.
Enclosed operator cabs might be a great alternative in certain environments to help protect workers from harsh conditions. To keep the employees safe, the enclosed operator cabs provide tempered glass, sound proofing, and an emergency exit. Dual and panoramic rear view mirrors are available to enhance driver visibility, specially of the part behind the lift truck and the tail swing area. Impact monitors could be installed that disable the unit and need a manager or supervisor to re-enable the forklift. This can help to make sure that workers are safely operating machinery. To prevent lift trucks from rolling when the driver intends to stop, an auto park brake is an optional feature that could be included. The park brake applied itself automatically when the forklift comes to a complete stop.
Certain ratings may be needed for various applications. The approved construction standards and particularly the UL GS, LPS, DS underwriter laboratory rating labels would tell the user whether the forklift is outfitted with added resistance to spark creation. If there is an issue, there is a mechanical main battery disconnect. An EE UL rating means that the forklift could be utilized in work areas where sparks or arcs from electrical equipment could ignite airborne deposits.
