Nissan has taken the initiative to make the first pantograph type reach truck within the business. This was due to 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 Australian launch is scheduled to follow really soon.
The SRX Platinum Series is offered in 3 capacities. These load capacities range from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was developed because of intensive operator contribution on the design. These considerations played a huge roll to guarantee its acceptance into the incredibly competitive reach truck market in the US. The following excellent safety and operator comfort 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 unit is complete with a gently sloped floorboard which is in place to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This design offers a relaxed driving position for the operator during a standing shift. Additionally, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to offer a more enjoyable and smoother ride.
The caster design's dual spring suspension system adds to the overall smoothness of the drive. The suspension also offers a much more stable operation during use on uneven or rough driving surfaces. The thick padding located underneath the operator's arm further enhances the total comfort factor. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place also. The rear overhead guard post and the high operator backrest on the SRX Series offer additional operator protection. This is particularly important when working around racking and within tight locations.
Nissan's lift trucks have been made with the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior with a multi-function handle, that helps to achieve accurate control while lessening operator comfort. Several of the Operational commands include lower or lift, drive, horn, side-shift or other auxiliary function and reach can be performed and executed utilizing this single handle.
