Nissan has started to build the very first pantograph style reach truck in the industry. 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 very soon.
The SRX Platinum Series is offered in 3 capacities. These load capacities vary from 1360 kg to 2000. The system was made because of intensive operator contribution on the design. These factors played a huge roll to ensure its acceptance into the incredibly competitive reach truck market in the US. The following outstanding 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 forward and reverse driving a comfortable experience for the operator. The model is complete with a gently sloped floorboard which is in place to sit on top of 4 vibration isolators. This particular design provides a relaxed driving position for the operator in a standing shift. Moreover, the SRX Platinum Series offers a cushioned floor mat to provide a more enjoyable and smoother 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 uneven or rough driving surfaces. The thick padding situated under the operator's arm further improves the total comfort factor. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place as well. The rear overhead guard post and the high operator backrest on the SRX Series provide additional operator protection. This is particularly vital when working around racking and in tight locations.
The multi-function handle and the ergonomically and intuitive designed interior of Nissan's lift trucks are made to achieve accurate 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 performed and executed utilizing this single handle.
