Due to the increasing requirement for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks, Nissan has started to make the first pantograph type reach truck in the business. 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 of forklifts are available in 3 different load capacities ranging from 1360 kilograms to 2000. The system was made because of intensive operator contribution on the design. These considerations played a big roll to ensure its acceptance into the extremely competitive reach truck market in 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 unit is available with a gently sloped floorboard which is in place to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This particular design offers a relaxed driving position for the operator during a standing shift. Moreover, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to offer a smoother and more comfortable ride.
The dual spring suspension system in the caster design adds to the overall smoothness of the drive. The suspension also provides a much more stable operation during use on rough or uneven driving surfaces. The thick padding located underneath the operator's arm enhances the total comfort factor further. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place too. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series offer extra operator protection. This is specially important when working around racking and in tight locations.
The multi-function handle and the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior of Nissan's forklifts are made to achieve precise control while reducing operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands include lower or lift, drive, side-shift or other auxiliary function, reach, and the horn are capable of being executed and performed utilizing this single handle.
