Due to the growing demand for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks, Nissan has started to build the 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 Australian launch is scheduled to follow really soon.
The SRX Platinum Series of forklifts come in 3 different load capacities varying from 1360 kilograms to 2000. The system was made because of intensive operator participation on the design. These factors played a huge part to guarantee its acceptance into the incredibly competitive reach truck market within the US. 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 reverse and forward driving a comfortable experience for the operator. The model is complete 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 offers a cushioned floor mat to provide a ride that is smoother and more enjoyable.
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 made to provide much better stability during operation. The thick padding situated underneath the operator's arm further improves 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 provide additional operator protection. This is especially important when working around racking and within tight locations.
The multi-function handle and the ergonomically and intuitive designed interior of Nissan's lift trucks are made to achieve accurate control while reducing operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands include drive, lower or lift, side-shift or other auxiliary function, reach, and the horn could be executed and performed by this single handle.
