Nissan has taken the initiative to make the very first pantograph type reach truck in the business. This was due to the increased 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 of forklifts come in 3 various load capacities varying from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was made because of intensive operator participation on the design. These considerations played a huge part to guarantee 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 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 positioned to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This particular design offers a relaxed driving position for the operator in a standing shift. In addition, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to offer a ride that is more enjoyable and smoother.
The dual spring suspension system in the caster design adds to the machines smoothness of operation. This suspension on rough and uneven driving surfaces, the suspension has been designed to offer much better stability during operation. The thick padding located beneath the operator's arm further improves the total comfort factor. 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 provide additional protection for the operator. This is especially important when working within tight and around racking locations.
The multi-function handle and the ergonomically and intuitive designed interior of Nissan's lift trucks are made to achieve accurate control while reducing operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands include drive, lower or lift, horn, side-shift or other auxiliary function and reach could be performed and executed using this single handle.
