Hyster H40XMS Specifications

Basic Information

The Hyster H40XMS is a gas or LPG-powered forklift that delivers a compelling balance of power, efficiency, and versatility for material handling operations. Its core strength lies in the proven Mazda M4-2.0G engine, a four-cylinder powerplant providing dependable torque and reliability for continuous use. The machine rolls on pneumatic tires, offering excellent traction and shock absorption for varied surfaces.

Operator control is facilitated through features like hydrostatic power steering and a single-speed powershift transmission with Monotrol pedal control. The H40XMS is equipped with a 2-stage limited free-lift mast as standard, with optional 3-stage full free lift masts available, designed for productive operation across various applications.

This model is equipped with a standard 2-stage limited free-lift (LFL) mast, with optional 3-stage full free-lift (FFL) masts available depending on application requirements. It rolls on pneumatic tires, offering excellent stability and traction. The distance from the centre of the drive axle to the fork face is 14.9 in (379 mm).

The wheelbase is 52.8 in (1,341 mm). The total service weight of the truck is 6,795 lb (3,082 kg). When fully laden, the axle load distribution places 9,530 lb (4,323 kg) on the front axle and 1,265 lb (574 kg) on the rear axle. The overhead guard height is 82.1 in (2,085 mm).

Engine Specs

The Hyster H40XMS is powered by the Mazda M4-2.0G engine, a robust and reliable powerplant specifically designed for industrial operation. It is a four-cylinder engine with a total displacement of 121.0 cu.in (1,998 cc). This engine produces a rated power of 42.0 hp (31.0 kW) at 2,400 rpm on gasoline and 40.0 hp (29.8 kW) at 2,400 rpm on LPG according to SAE standards.

The engine features a 4-cycle design with overhead valves. Lubrication is provided by a pressure-fed system ensuring all moving components are adequately lubricated. Cooling is managed by a liquid-cooled system designed to maintain optimal operating temperatures. The fuel tank capacity is 7.9 US gal (30 L).

Drive Train

Transmission: It is fitted with a single-speed powershift transmission with a torque converter. Gear changes are controlled by a Monotrol pedal, which integrates direction and speed control.

Travel Speed: The forklift achieves a laden and unladen travel speed of 12.3 mph (19.8 km/h) with the standard 1-speed transmission.

Axles: The drive axle is located at the front. The rear steer axle is robust with proven steer axle design.

Brakes: The service brake system is hydraulic with foot control. The parking brake is mechanical with hand control.

Electrical System

The electrical system is engineered to reliably support the engine, safety features, and lighting. It operates on a standard 12-volt architecture with a maintenance-free battery rated at 305 cold cranking amps. The system powers the starter motor, engine control systems, and all essential lighting components for safe operation.

Wheels and Tires

The chassis provides a rigid and durable foundation, constructed from heavy-gauge steel with fully welded frame construction to support all major components under load stress. Wheels and Tires: The H40XMS is fitted with pneumatic tires with 2 front and 2 rear wheels.

Front Tires: 6.50x10-12 PR
Rear Tires: 5.00x8-10 PR

Track Width:
Front: 34.9 in (887 mm)
Rear: 35.2 in (894 mm)

Drive Configuration: The vehicle utilizes a 2-wheel drive configuration, with the two front wheels serving as the driven wheels.

Steering: The steering system on the Hyster H40XMS is a hydrostatic power steering system that provides smooth and effortless control during low-speed maneuvering and in confined spaces.

Hydraulic System

The hydraulic system is responsible for powering the lifting, tilting, and any auxiliary functions. The system operating pressure for attachments is 2,560 psi (17,635 kPa). The relief pressure for attachments is set accordingly. The mast tilts forward by 6 degrees and backward by 6 degrees. A safety valve prevents uncontrolled lowering of the load.
