Frequently asked questions about the Hyster J1.6XNT
what is the difference between the SWB, MWB and LWB versions?
The wheelbase variants allow the length of the truck to be adjusted to customer requirements. SWB (Short Wheel Base) offers greater maneuverability, MWB (Medium Wheel Base) offers a balance between autonomy and agility, and LWB (Long Wheel Base) offers greater battery capacity for long shifts.
what is the operating weight of the model?
It depends on the configuration. The SWB version has an operating weight of 3,083 kg, while the MWB and LWB versions are slightly higher.
can it be operated indoors?
Yes, its electrical operation makes it suitable for enclosed spaces, without emissions, and with a very low noise level (69 dB(A) at the operator's station).
what maintenance is required?
Minimal. Thanks to brushless motors, integrated diagnostic systems and sealed components, maintenance is greatly reduced, allowing service intervals of up to 1,000 hours.
