The most compact internal combustion forklift truck series in the Hyster® Fortens range, the H1.6-2.0FT is designed for demanding indoor and outdoor applications, providing a low cost of ownership.
Available with Fortens Advance configurations and a 2.6L diesel or 2.0L LPG engine, these tough and reliable forklift trucks are suited to the most intense 24-hour logistics and distribution operations.
Auto Deceleration System (ADS) automatically slows the truck when the accelerator pedal is released, and finally brings the truck to a stop, which helps to significantly extend brake life. In addition, this feature assists the driver to accurately position the truck in front of a load.
There are 10 ADS settings, programmable via the dash display by a service technician, which deliver different braking characteristics, from very gradual to aggressive, to suit the needs of the application.
The heavy duty industrial use engine comes with a cast iron cylinder block and no HT (high tension) wires, distributor caps or rotors. Super quick glow plugs allow the engine to start quickly and reliably under cold conditions, the cold start device delivering a cleaner exhaust by advancing the fuel injection timing based on water temperature. Whilst emissions have been reduced by controlling fuel injection timing according to engine load.
ECO-eLo performance mode reduces energy consumption by up to 15% compared with previous generation engines and without compromising productivity.
