Due to the increasing demand for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks, Nissan has taken the initiative to develop 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 very soon.
The SRX Platinum Series is offered in 3 capacities. These load capacities vary from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was made thanks to intensive operator participation on the design. These factors played a big roll to guarantee its acceptance into the hugely competitive reach truck market within the United States. The following excellent operator comfort and safety features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
Due to a low step height, entry and exit is simplified. The side stance design makes forward and reverse driving a comfortable experience for the operator. The unit is complete with a gently sloped floorboard that is in place to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This particular design provides a relaxed driving position for the operator throughout a standing shift. Additionally, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to provide a ride which is more enjoyable and smoother.
The caster design of the dual spring suspension system adds to the equipment's smoothness of operation. This particular suspension on rough and uneven driving surfaces, the suspension has been built to offer much better stability during operation. The thick padding situated beneath the operator's arm enhances the total comfort factor further. There is a height adjustable knee pad and cushioned backrest in place as well. The rear overhead guard post and the high operator backrest on the SRX Series offer extra operator protection. This is specially important when working within 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 include lift and lower, drive, side-shift or other auxiliary function, reach, and the horn are capable of being executed and performed utilizing this single handle.
