Because of the growing demand for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks, Nissan has started to develop the very first pantograph type reach truck within the industry. Introducing the new SRX Platinum Series of reach trucks has become part of the North American market. The launch within Australia is scheduled to follow very soon.
The SRX Platinum Series of forklifts are available in 3 various load capacities varying from 1360 kilograms to 2000. The system was developed because of intensive operator contribution on the design. These considerations played a huge roll to ensure its acceptance into the incredibly competitive reach truck market in the US. The following outstanding operator comfort and safety features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
The entry and exit to the machine has been simplified due to a low step height. The model's side stance design makes driving both forward and reverse more comfortable for the operator. The model is complete with a gently sloped floorboard which is positioned to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This design provides a relaxed driving position for the operator throughout a standing shift. Furthermore, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to offer a ride which is smoother and more enjoyable.
The dual spring suspension system in the caster design adds to the drive's overall smoothness. The suspension also provides a much more stable operation during use on rough or uneven driving surfaces. The thick padding situated under the operator's arm further enhances the total comfort factor. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place too. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series offer extra operator protection. This is especially essential when working within tight and around racking locations.
The multi-function handle and the ergonomically and intuitive designed interior of Nissan's lift trucks are built to achieve accurate control while reducing operator comfort. Several of the Operational commands comprise lift and lower, drive, horn, side-shift or other auxiliary function and reach are capable of being performed and executed by this single handle.
