Nissan has taken the initiative to make the first pantograph type reach truck within the industry. This was due to the growing requirement for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks. Introducing the new SRX Platinum Series of reach trucks has become part of the North American market. The launch in Australia is scheduled to follow very soon.
The SRX Platinum Series of forklifts are available in 3 various load capacities varying from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was made because of intensive operator participation on the design. These factors played a huge part to ensure its acceptance into the incredibly competitive reach truck market in the United States. The following outstanding operator comfort and safety features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
Because of a low step height, entry and exit is simplified. The side stance design makes reverse and forward driving a comfortable experience for the operator. The model is complete with a gently sloped floorboard which is in place to sit on top of 4 vibration isolators. This design offers a relaxed driving position for the operator in a standing shift. Additionally, the SRX Platinum Series offers a cushioned floor mat to offer a ride that is more enjoyable and smoother.
The dual spring suspension system in the caster design adds to the equipment's smoothness of operation. This particular suspension on uneven and rough driving surfaces, the suspension has been built to offer much better stability during operation. The thick padding located under the operator's arm further improves the total comfort factor. There is a height adjustable knee pad and cushioned backrest in place as well. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series provide extra protection for the operator. This is specially important when working in tight and around racking locations.
Nissan's lift trucks have been designed with the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior with a multi-function handle, that helps to achieve precise control while lessening operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands comprise lower or lift, drive, horn, side-shift or other auxiliary function and reach are capable of being executed and performed by this single handle.
