Hyster Adds Platform Stacker to General Purpose Ops Range

Hyster Europe has introduced a new Platform Stacker, the latest addition to its recently launched range of uncomplicated trucks suited to general-purpose operations.

The Hyster S1.5UT S Platform Stacker, for lifting up to 1.5 tonnes, provides a straight-forward and affordable solution for those transporting stock over short distances, such as in warehouses and manufacturing operations. The truck is the latest addition to the recently launched Hyster UT series, which offers a choice of cost-effective counterbalance IC lift trucks, pallet trucks and pallet stackers.

With a fit-for-purpose foldable platform, the new Hyster S1.5UT S helps to enhance operator comfort, while electric steering and simple controls are included as standard for ease of operation.

To cater to different application requirements, options include an on-board charger and lateral battery extraction. A choice of 2-stage NFL mast up to 3.5m and 3-stage FFL mast up to 5.6m is also available, as well as a 570 x 1150 forks option.

“The new Platform Stacker truck gives operations yet another option for specifying the Hyster warehouse equipment that best meets their particular needs,” says Rob O’Donoghue, Director Solutions – Europe, Middle East and Africa for Hyster. “With the new range of no-nonsense trucks, applications can expect a low cost of operation alongside dependable Hyster quality.”

The S1.5UT S Platform Stacker also features maintenance free AC motors, simple wiring and durable components, as well as straightforward service and troubleshooting. All Hyster warehouse equipment benefits from support through the global network of local Hyster distribution partners.
