Due to the increasing demand for high performing narrow aisle reach trucks, Nissan has started to make the very first pantograph style reach truck within the industry. Introducing the new SRX Platinum Series of reach trucks has become part of the North American market. The Australian launch is scheduled to follow very soon.
The SRX Platinum Series is offered in 3 capacities. These load capacities range from 1360 kg 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 outstanding safety and operator comfort features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.
Because of 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 available with a gently sloped floorboard which is in place to sit on top of 4 vibration isolators. This design offers a relaxed driving position for the operator during a standing shift. In addition, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to provide a more enjoyable and smoother ride.
The caster design of the dual spring suspension system adds to the machines smoothness of operation. This particular suspension on uneven and rough driving surfaces, the suspension has been made to provide much better stability during operation. The thick padding situated under the operator's arm further enhances the total comfort factor. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place also. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series offer extra operator protection. This is specially important 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 lift and lower, drive, side-shift or other auxiliary function, reach, and the horn can be performed and executed by this single handle.
