Nissan has started to develop the very first pantograph style reach truck within the business. This was due to the growing demand 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 Australian launch is scheduled to follow really soon.
The SRX Platinum Series of forklifts come in 3 different load capacities ranging from 1360 kilograms to 2000. The system was developed because of intensive operator input on the design. These considerations played a huge roll to guarantee its acceptance into the extremely competitive reach truck market in the US. The following outstanding safety and operator comfort features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
The entry and exit to the equipment has been simplified due to a low step height. The unit's side stance design makes driving both reverse and forward more comfortable for the operator. The model is complete with a gently sloped floorboard that is positioned to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This design provides a relaxed driving position for the operator in a standing shift. Furthermore, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to offer a ride which is more enjoyable and smoother.
The dual spring suspension system in the caster design adds to the overall smoothness of the drive. The suspension also offers a much more stable operation during use on uneven or rough driving surfaces. The thick padding situated underneath the operator's arm further enhances 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 offer extra protection for the operator. This is especially essential when working in tight and around racking locations.
Nissan's lift trucks have been made with the ergonomically and intuitive designed interior with a multi-function handle, that helps to achieve accurate control while lessening operator comfort. Several of the Operational commands consist of drive, lower or lift, horn, side-shift or other auxiliary function and reach are capable of being performed and executed by this single handle.
