Due to the increasing demand for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks, Nissan has started to develop the first pantograph style reach truck in the business. 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 input on the design. These factors played a big roll to ensure its acceptance into the extremely competitive reach truck market within the United States. The following excellent operator comfort and safety features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
The exit and entry to the machinery has been simplified thanks to a low step height. The model's side stance design makes driving both forward and reverse more comfortable for the operator. The unit is available with a gently sloped floorboard which is in place to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This design provides a relaxed driving position for the operator during a standing shift. Additionally, the SRX Platinum Series offers a cushioned floor mat to offer a ride which is more enjoyable and smoother.
The caster design of the dual spring suspension system adds to the equipment's smoothness of operation. This suspension on rough and uneven driving surfaces, the suspension has been made to provide much better stability during operation. The thick padding located 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 rear overhead guard post and the high operator backrest on the SRX Series offer extra protection for the operator. This is especially vital when working in tight and around racking locations.
The multi-function handle and the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior of Nissan's forklifts are built to achieve precise control while lessening operator comfort. Several of the Operational commands comprise lower or lift, drive, reach, horn and the side-shift or other auxiliary function can be executed and performed by this single handle.
