Nissan has started to build the very first pantograph style reach truck in the business. This was because of the growing 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 come in 3 different load capacities varying from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was made due to intensive operator input on the design. These factors played a big part to ensure its acceptance into the extremely competitive reach truck market in the United States. The following excellent operator comfort and safety features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
Due to a low step height, entry and exit is simplified. The side stance design makes reverse and forward driving a comfortable experience for the operator. The unit is available with a gently sloped floorboard that is in place to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This design offers a relaxed driving position for the operator during a standing shift. In addition, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to offer a smoother and more comfortable ride.
The caster design of the dual spring suspension system adds to the machines smoothness of operation. This particular suspension on uneven and rough driving surfaces, the suspension has been built to provide much better stability during operation. The thick padding located beneath the operator's arm further enhances the total comfort factor. There is a height adjustable knee pad and cushioned backrest in place also. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series provide extra operator protection. This is particularly vital when working in tight and around racking locations.
The multi-function handle and the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior of Nissan's lift trucks are made to achieve precise control while lessening operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands consist of drive, lower or lift, reach, horn and the side-shift or other auxiliary function could be executed and performed using this single handle.
