Because of the growing requirement for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks, Nissan has started to build the first pantograph type reach truck in the industry. 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 is available in 3 capacities. These load capacities vary from 1360 kilograms to 2000. The system was made 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 safety and operator comfort features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
Due to a low step height, exit and entry 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 positioned to sit on top of 4 vibration isolators. This design provides a relaxed driving position for the operator throughout a standing shift. Moreover, the SRX Platinum Series offers a cushioned floor mat to provide a smoother and more comfortable ride.
The caster design's dual spring suspension system adds to the drive's overall smoothness. The suspension also offers a much more stable operation during use on rough or uneven driving surfaces. The thick padding located beneath the operator's arm further improves the total comfort factor. There is a height adjustable knee pad and cushioned backrest in place also. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series provide additional protection for the operator. This is specially vital 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, which helps to achieve precise control while lessening operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands comprise drive, lower or lift, side-shift or other auxiliary function, reach, and the horn can be executed and performed using this single handle.
