Due to the increasing demand for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks, Nissan has started to build the very first pantograph style reach truck in the industry. 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 really soon.
The SRX Platinum Series is offered in 3 capacities. These load capacities range 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 incredibly competitive reach truck market in the United States. The following excellent safety and operator comfort features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
The entry and exit to the equipment has been simplified because of a low step height. The unit's side stance design makes driving both reverse and forward more comfortable for the operator. The unit is available with a gently sloped floorboard that is in place 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 provides a cushioned floor mat to offer a ride which is smoother and more enjoyable.
The dual spring suspension system in the caster design adds to the drive's overall smoothness. The suspension also provides a much more stable operation during use on rough or uneven driving surfaces. The thick padding situated underneath the operator's arm further enhances the total comfort factor. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place as well. The rear overhead guard post and the high operator backrest on the SRX Series offer extra protection for the operator. This is particularly important when working in tight and around racking locations.
The multi-function handle and the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior of Nissan's forklifts are made to achieve accurate control while reducing operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands consist of drive, lift and lower, reach, horn and the side-shift or other auxiliary function could be performed and executed by this single handle.
