Nissan has taken the initiative to build the first pantograph style reach truck within the business. This was due to the growing 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 launch within Australia is scheduled to follow really soon.
The SRX Platinum Series is offered in 3 capacities. These load capacities vary from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was developed thanks to intensive operator participation on the design. These considerations played a big part to guarantee its acceptance into the hugely competitive reach truck market within the US. The following outstanding safety and operator comfort features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
The entry and exit to the machine has been simplified due to a low step height. The model's side stance design makes driving both forward and reverse more comfortable for the operator. The model is complete with a gently sloped floorboard which is positioned to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This design offers 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 which is smoother and more enjoyable.
The dual spring suspension system in the caster design adds to the equipment's smoothness of operation. This suspension on uneven and rough driving surfaces, the suspension has been designed to provide much better stability during operation. The thick padding located under the operator's arm enhances the total comfort factor further. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place as well. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series offer extra protection for the operator. This is particularly essential when working within tight and around racking locations.
Nissan's lift trucks have been designed with the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior with a multi-function handle, that helps to achieve accurate control while lessening operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands include drive, lift and lower, horn, side-shift or other auxiliary function and reach are capable of being performed and executed by this single handle.
