This Hyster H32.00 FY 16CH is a mast container handler — sometimes referred to as a reach stacker or empty/laden container handler — a heavy-duty piece of lifting equipment designed to move, lift, and stack intermodal shipping containers in port terminals, freight depots, and logistics yards. Hyster is a well-established manufacturer of industrial lift trucks and heavy material handling equipment, with a long-standing reputation for producing robust machines suited to demanding commercial and industrial applications.
This particular unit has arrived directly from NATO reserve stock and is described as being in excellent condition, which is consistent with reserve fleet ownership, where machines are typically kept in a preserved state rather than subjected to continuous working use. The hour meter shows 3,283 hours, a relatively modest figure for a machine of this class and age, having been manufactured in 1997.
In terms of capability, the handler carries a rated lifting capacity of 32,000 kg and is equipped to handle both 20-foot and 40-foot ISO containers, covering the two most common standard shipping container lengths. It is capable of stacking containers three high, making it well suited to yard storage operations where vertical space is used to maximise container density.
The machine has been recently fitted with a full set of new tyres, which represents a meaningful recent investment given the size and cost of tyres at this class of machine. It is also equipped with a weigh load indicator, which allows operators to monitor the load being lifted — a useful safety and logistics feature when handling containers of unknown or variable weight. The unit is CE marked, confirming compliance with the relevant European safety standards applicable at the time of manufacture and certification.
This used container handler is located in the United Kingdom and carries stock reference LJ01150.
