Nissan has taken the initiative to develop the very first pantograph style reach truck in the business. This was because of the growing 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 launch within Australia is scheduled to follow very soon.
The SRX Platinum Series of forklifts are available in 3 different load capacities ranging 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 US. The following outstanding operator comfort and safety features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
The exit and entry 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 complete with a gently sloped floorboard that is in place to sit on top of 4 vibration isolators. This particular design provides a relaxed driving position for the operator throughout a standing shift. In addition, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to provide a ride which is smoother and more enjoyable.
The caster design's dual spring suspension system adds to the overall smoothness of the drive. The suspension also provides a much more stable operation during use on uneven or rough driving surfaces. The thick padding situated underneath 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 high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series provide extra operator protection. This is particularly important when working in tight and around racking locations.
The multi-function handle and the ergonomically and intuitive designed interior of Nissan's forklifts are made to achieve accurate control while reducing operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands consist of lower or lift, drive, reach, horn and the side-shift or other auxiliary function are capable of being executed and performed utilizing this single handle.
