Because of the growing requirement for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks, Nissan has taken the initiative to build 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 within Australia is scheduled to follow very soon.
The SRX Platinum Series of forklifts are available in 3 different load capacities varying from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was developed due to intensive operator participation on the design. These factors played a huge roll to guarantee its acceptance into the extremely competitive reach truck market in the United States. The following outstanding safety and operator comfort features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
The entry and exit to the machine has been simplified because of a low step height. The unit's side stance design makes driving both forward and reverse more comfortable for the operator. The model is available with a gently sloped floorboard that is positioned to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This design provides a relaxed driving position for the operator in a standing shift. In addition, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to provide a more enjoyable and smoother ride.
The dual spring suspension system in the caster design adds to the machines smoothness of operation. This suspension on uneven and rough driving surfaces, the suspension has been designed to offer much better stability during operation. The thick padding located underneath the operator's arm enhances the total comfort factor further. There is a height adjustable knee pad and cushioned backrest in place too. The rear overhead guard post and the high operator backrest on the SRX Series offer additional operator protection. This is especially important when working around racking and within tight 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 include lift and lower, drive, reach, horn and the side-shift or other auxiliary function are capable of being executed and performed utilizing this single handle.
