Nissan has taken the initiative to develop the first pantograph type reach truck in the industry. This was because of the increased 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 Australian launch is scheduled to follow very soon.
The SRX Platinum Series of forklifts are available in 3 various load capacities ranging from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was made because of intensive operator contribution on the design. These considerations played a big part to guarantee 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.
The entry and exit to the machine has been simplified thanks to a low step height. The unit's side stance design makes driving both forward and reverse more comfortable for the operator. The model is complete with a gently sloped floorboard that is in place to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This particular design offers a relaxed driving position for the operator throughout a standing shift. Moreover, the SRX Platinum Series offers a cushioned floor mat to provide a more enjoyable and smoother ride.
The caster design's dual spring suspension system adds to the overall smoothness of the drive. The suspension also provides a much more stable operation during use on rough or uneven driving surfaces. The thick padding located beneath the operator's arm further improves the total comfort factor. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place as well. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series offer additional operator protection. This is especially essential when working in tight and around racking locations.
Nissan's lift trucks have been built with the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior with a multi-function handle, that helps to achieve accurate control while lessening operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands comprise drive, lower or lift, reach, horn and the side-shift or other auxiliary function are capable of being performed and executed using this single handle.
