Advantages

• Propane power: Propane forklifts are ideal for mixed indoor/outdoor use and continuous multi-shift operations. Fast cylinder swaps minimize downtime compared to charging electric batteries, and indoor-friendly emissions make Propane a practical choice for warehouses, distribution centers, and production lines with proper ventilation.
• Non-Marking Cushion Tires: Cushion tires deliver a tight turning radius and smooth handling on finished floors. The non-marking compound helps preserve clean floor appearance and reduces housekeeping costs in facilities where black tire marks are unacceptable (food and beverage, retail DCs, pharmaceuticals, and high-spec manufacturing).
• Fork Positioner: The ability to adjust fork spacing from the operator’s seat speeds up load changes, improves ergonomics, and reduces the need to manually reposition forks. This is a meaningful boost to throughput when handling mixed pallet sizes, crates, and skids throughout the shift.
• Side Shift: Side shift provides lateral carriage movement for precise placement without re-approaching the load. It shortens cycle times at racks and trucks, reduces product and racking contact, and helps operators correct alignment in tight aisles and crowded docks.
• 6000# Capacity: A 6,000-pound rated capacity is a true warehouse workhorse, covering the vast majority of palletized goods, raw materials, packaging stock, and components. This capacity class offers a strong balance of lifting power and compact footprint for congested indoor operations.
• 89" (Collapsed) Triple Mast / 194" Full Free Lift Height: The low collapsed height helps the forklift pass under standard dock doors, mezzanines, and low obstructions. Triple-stage with full free lift allows lifting within height-restricted areas—such as inside trailers and containers—before the mast extends above the inner rails. The 194" maximum free lift height supports efficient put-away and retrieval across common racking elevations.
• Four Way Hydraulics: With four hydraulic functions available, you have the control capability needed for the installed attachments (fork positioner and side shift) and the flexibility to integrate compatible hydraulic tools. This opens the door to fine-tuned handling and future configuration adjustments as your material handling needs evolve.

Applications

The Hyster S60FT straight mast forklift is widely respected in environments that demand reliable, repeatable performance with tight maneuvering and high utilization. With Propane power and non-marking cushion tires, this configuration excels in indoor, smooth-floor operations where cleanliness and precision matter. Common applications include:

• Warehousing and distribution: Fast turn dock work, pallet handling, cross-docking, and staging in narrow aisles.
• Manufacturing: Line-side replenishment, work-in-process movement, and finished goods staging on smooth plant floors.
• Food and beverage: Non-marking tires help maintain facility standards while safely handling packaged goods and raw ingredients.
• Retail fulfillment and e-commerce: High-velocity picks, put-away, and trailer loading where maneuverability and accuracy are critical.
• Paper, packaging, and printing: Safe, efficient handling of pallets, rolls, and material bundles with minimal floor scuffing.
• Building materials and components: Moving heavier assemblies or mixed pallets up to the 6000# rating within controlled indoor areas.

Ownership Value

Hyster has a long-standing reputation for durability, serviceability, and operator-focused design, and the S60FT is a staple in the 6,000-pound capacity class. For buyers seeking maximum ROI, this 2022 unit delivers a compelling mix of capability and cost control:

• Productivity: Seat-adjustable fork spacing and side shift reduce cycle times and operator fatigue, translating to more pallets moved per shift.
• Versatility: Propane power and four hydraulic functions give you the flexibility to run common attachments and adapt to changing load profiles.
• Floor-friendly operation: Non-marking cushion tires maintain a professional facility appearance and can reduce maintenance tied to tire scuff cleanup.
• Space efficiency: The collapsed triple mast height and tight-turning cushion chassis are ideal for dock doors, trailers, and dense racking layouts.
• Cost efficiency: Buying a late-model, low-hour used forklift at $22,750 can dramatically lower your cost per pallet moved compared to new, while preserving the performance characteristics most operations need daily.

Why This S60FT

Among used straight mast forklifts, this Hyster S60FT stands out for its balanced specification and warehouse-ready configuration. The 6000# capacity covers a wide swath of material handling needs; the 89" collapsed height/194" full free lift triple mast combination enables work in height-restricted zones and typical rack heights; fork positioner and side shift dramatically improve throughput and placement accuracy; and four-way hydraulics future-proof your hydraulic control requirements. Add in the non-marking cushion tires for clean, quiet maneuvering on finished floors and Propane power for quick refueling and consistent performance across shifts, and you have a machine that is ready to slot into productive service on day one. The 2022 model year and 4,695 hours further strengthen the value proposition for operators who want modern features without new-equipment pricing.
