(Greenville, N.C.) - Hyster Company announces the release of the new H1150HD lift truck, raising the bar in container handling lift capability. The H1150HD, with a capacity of 88,185 pounds (40,000 kg), provides best-in-class lift capability, industry leading ergonomics, outstanding performance and reliability, plus ease of maintenance - all combining to give the most economical cost in moving fully laden containers.
