Nissan has started to develop the first pantograph style reach truck in the business. This was because of the increased demand 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 various load capacities varying from 1360 kilograms to 2000. The system was developed thanks to intensive operator contribution on the design. These considerations played a huge part to ensure its acceptance into the extremely competitive reach truck market in the US. The following outstanding operator comfort and safety features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
Because of 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 unit is available with a gently sloped floorboard which is positioned to sit on top of 4 vibration isolators. This particular design provides a relaxed driving position for the operator in a standing shift. Furthermore, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to offer a smoother and more comfortable ride.
The caster design of the dual spring suspension system adds to the machines smoothness of operation. This particular suspension on rough and uneven driving surfaces, the suspension has been made to offer much better stability during operation. The thick padding situated beneath the operator's arm further enhances the total comfort factor. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place also. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series provide extra protection for the operator. This is especially vital when working in tight and around racking locations.
Nissan's forklifts have been designed with the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior with a multi-function handle, which helps to achieve precise control while reducing operator comfort. Several of the Operational commands consist of drive, lower or lift, horn, side-shift or other auxiliary function and reach can be executed and performed by this single handle.
