Buyers can discuss inspection details and any available service information directly with NLEQ referencing inventory number 146765 for clarity and confidence in the purchase.

Advantages

• Electric power, 36 Volt Battery: Operating on a 36V electric system, the Hyster J30XNT delivers quiet, low-emission performance well-suited to indoor environments where air quality and noise control matter. Electric forklifts also simplify fueling logistics and can reduce day-to-day operating costs compared to internal combustion units, while offering smooth, responsive torque at low speeds for confident load handling.
• 3000# Capacity: A 3000# capacity covers a broad range of palletized and crated loads typically encountered in warehousing, manufacturing support, retail stockrooms, and light industrial applications. This capacity class balances strength with agility, making it easier to navigate tighter aisles and staging areas without sacrificing essential lift capability.
• 82" (Collapsed) Triple Mast / 187" Lift Height: The triple mast configuration provides the vertical reach needed for common racking heights while keeping the collapsed height to a compact 82" for doorway clearance, trailer loading, and mezzanine access. With a 187" lift height, operators can place loads in higher rack positions and optimize vertical storage without upsizing to a larger, heavier truck.
• Side Shift: Side shift allows the carriage and forks to move laterally without repositioning the truck. In practice, this means faster, more precise placement when engaging pallets at height, aligning loads in tight racking, or centering skids on trailers. Side shift helps reduce aisle congestion and time spent jockeying the forklift for perfect alignment.
• Three Way Hydraulics: Three Way Hydraulics typically support the primary functions required for controlled load handling—lift, tilt, and side shift. This provides operators with intuitive, efficient control over load positioning, enhancing safety and productivity in routine stacking, staging, and unloading cycles.
• Hyster build quality: Hyster is recognized across the industry for durability, ergonomics, and serviceability. That reputation translates to consistent uptime, confident operator control, and strong parts support over the life of the machine.

Applications

The Hyster J30XNT straight mast forklift is designed for environments where reliable electric performance, compact dimensions, and precise load placement are essential. With 3000# capacity, Side Shift, and a 187" maximum lift height, it serves a wide range of industries and workflows, including:

• Warehousing and distribution: Pallet staging, truck loading/unloading, order consolidation, and racking at heights compatible with the 187" lift capability.
• Manufacturing and assembly support: Moving work-in-process materials, components, and finished goods between lines, storage areas, and shipping zones, while benefiting from clean, Electric operation.
• Food and beverage: Indoor storage, cold rooms, and areas where emissions control and quiet operation are desired.
• Retail and big-box back-of-house: Stock replenishment, pallet breakdown, and dock operations, with Side Shift improving precision in crowded receiving bays.
• Building materials and light industrial: Palletized materials, supplies, and packaged goods where 3000# Capacity is a practical fit for daily workloads.

Ownership Value

Choosing an electric straight mast forklift like the Hyster J30XNT can offer meaningful ownership benefits. Electric power eliminates on-site exhaust emissions, which supports regulatory compliance and worker comfort in enclosed spaces. Noise levels are typically lower than internal combustion models, making communication easier and improving the overall work environment. With fewer fluid systems tied to engines and simplified fueling, many owners find routine maintenance more predictable on electric platforms.

From a productivity standpoint, the combination of Three Way Hydraulics and Side Shift enables operators to work efficiently and confidently, especially when aligning loads in racking or on trailers. The 82" (Collapsed) Triple Mast is a practical advantage in facilities with low door headers or mixed-height access points, while the 187" Lift Height delivers the vertical reach necessary for popular racking configurations without moving to a larger footprint truck.

Hyster’s emphasis on durability and serviceability supports long-term value. Parts availability and technician familiarity with the J30XNT platform help minimize downtime when service is required. For operations transitioning from internal combustion to electric, a 36 Volt Battery system is a proven, widely supported standard that fits neatly into many existing charging programs and workflows.

Why this J30XNT

For buyers seeking a used straight mast forklift that blends capability and efficiency, this 2020 Hyster J30XNT stands out. The low 1,375 hours suggest measured utilization, while the 3000# capacity targets the sweet spot for most palletized materials. Side Shift and Three Way Hydraulics give operators the control they need to reduce cycle times during loading, racking, and staging. The 82" collapsed height expands where the truck can go—through standard doorways, into trailers, and under low clearances—without compromising the ability to stack at a 187" Lift Height.

The Electric configuration, supported by a 36 Volt Battery, is ideal for indoor and mixed-use operations looking to cut emissions and noise while maintaining strong, consistent torque for start-and-stop tasks. Hyster engineering rounds out the package with robust construction and thoughtful ergonomics, helping to keep operators comfortable and productive over long shifts.
