Nissan has started to develop the first pantograph style reach truck in the business. 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 Australian launch is scheduled to follow really soon.
The SRX Platinum Series of forklifts are available in 3 various load capacities ranging from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was developed thanks to intensive operator input on the design. These factors played a big roll to ensure its acceptance into the incredibly competitive reach truck market within the US. The following outstanding safety and operator comfort features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
The exit and entry to the equipment 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 unit is complete with a gently sloped floorboard which is positioned to sit on top of 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 provide a ride which is smoother and more enjoyable.
The caster design's dual spring suspension system adds to the drive's overall smoothness. The suspension also provides a much more stable operation during use on uneven or rough driving surfaces. The thick padding situated underneath the operator's arm enhances the total comfort factor further. There is a height adjustable knee pad and cushioned backrest in place also. The rear overhead guard post and the high operator backrest on the SRX Series offer extra protection for the operator. This is specially important when working around racking and within tight locations.
Nissan's forklifts have been designed with the ergonomically and intuitive designed interior with a multi-function handle, that helps to achieve accurate control while reducing operator comfort. Several of the Operational commands include lower or lift, drive, reach, horn and the side-shift or other auxiliary function can be executed and performed using this single handle.
