Nissan has taken the initiative to build the very first pantograph style reach truck in the industry. This was because of 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 launch in Australia is scheduled to follow really soon.
The SRX Platinum Series is available in 3 capacities. These load capacities range from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was made because of intensive operator participation on the design. These considerations played a huge roll 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.
Due to a low step height, exit and entry is simplified. The side stance design makes forward and reverse driving a comfortable experience for the operator. The unit 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 during a standing shift. Furthermore, the SRX Platinum Series offers a cushioned floor mat to provide a ride that is more enjoyable and smoother.
The dual spring suspension system in the caster design adds to the drive's overall smoothness. The suspension also offers a much more stable operation during use on rough or uneven driving surfaces. The thick padding located under the operator's arm enhances the total comfort factor further. There is a height adjustable knee pad and cushioned backrest in place as well. The rear overhead guard post and the high operator backrest on the SRX Series offer extra protection for the operator. This is specially essential when working around racking and in tight locations.
The multi-function handle and the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior of Nissan's forklifts are made to achieve accurate control while reducing operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands consist of lower or lift, drive, side-shift or other auxiliary function, reach, and the horn could be executed and performed by this single handle.
