More power and performance
December 1st 2006

Hyster has extended its range of Fortens trucks with the introduction of the new, higher capacity H4.0-5.5FT series – intended for applications where power and performance are paramount.

It will enable a new group of users to get more from the features and benefits, by offering configurations optimised to meet their specific application requirements meaning more high performance, increased uptime and enhanced ergonomics.

Since it was introduced, the Fortens range of trucks has built a strong reputation for its dependability, ergonomics, low cost of ownership and serviceability. The operating benefits of its advanced DuraMatch transmissions have been especially acclaimed by the market.

Now Hyster has added a choice of new and more powerful state-of-the-art engines, in the new H4.0- 5.5FT series. These are the Cummins 4B 4.5L diesel engine or the General Motors 4.3L LPG engine.

Both come with a standard warranty of 2000 hours or one year, or an extended powertrain warranty of 4000 hours or two years.

Each lift truck in the Fortens range is available as a Fortens, Fortens Advance or Fortens Advance+ model.

Each configuration offers a product solution that can be tailored to the needs of specific customer applications.
