Nissan has started to make the first pantograph type reach truck in the business. This was due to the increased 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 really soon.
The SRX Platinum Series of forklifts are available 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 part to guarantee its acceptance into the extremely competitive reach truck market in the US. The following excellent operator comfort and safety features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
Due to a low step height, exit and entry is simplified. The side stance design makes forward and reverse driving a comfortable experience for the operator. The unit is available with a gently sloped floorboard which is positioned to sit on top of 4 vibration isolators. This particular design offers a relaxed driving position for the operator throughout a standing shift. Furthermore, the SRX Platinum Series offers 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 equipment's smoothness of operation. This suspension on rough and uneven driving surfaces, the suspension has been built to offer much better stability during operation. The thick padding located under the operator's arm enhances the total comfort factor further. 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 offer additional protection for the operator. This is especially essential when working within tight and around racking locations.
The multi-function handle and the ergonomically and intuitive designed interior of Nissan's forklifts are built to achieve precise control while lessening operator comfort. Several of the Operational commands consist of drive, lower or lift, side-shift or other auxiliary function, reach, and the horn are capable of being executed and performed using this single handle.
