Because of the growing demand for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks, Nissan has taken the initiative to build the first pantograph style reach truck within the business. 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 come in 3 different load capacities varying from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was developed because of intensive operator participation 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.
Because of 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 which is in place to sit on top of 4 vibration isolators. This particular design offers a relaxed driving position for the operator during a standing shift. Additionally, the SRX Platinum Series provides 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 uneven or rough driving surfaces. The thick padding located under the operator's arm enhances the total comfort factor further. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place too. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series provide extra protection for the operator. This is especially essential when working in tight and around racking locations.
The multi-function handle and the ergonomically and intuitive designed interior of Nissan's lift trucks are designed to achieve accurate control while reducing operator comfort. Several of the Operational commands include lower or lift, drive, horn, side-shift or other auxiliary function and reach could be executed and performed using this single handle.
