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 following outstanding operator comfort and safety features have resulted for the Nissan trucks.

The unit is complete with a gently sloped floorboard that is in place to sit over 4 vibration isolators. This particular design offers a relaxed driving position for the operator throughout a standing shift. Additionally, the SRX Platinum Series provides a cushioned floor mat to offer a ride which is more enjoyable and smoother.
The dual spring suspension system in the caster design adds to the machines smoothness of operation. This suspension on rough and uneven driving surfaces, the suspension has been designed to provide much better stability during operation. The thick padding situated beneath the operator's arm enhances the total comfort factor further. There is a cushioned backrest and height adjustable knee pad in place as well. The high operator backrest and the rear overhead guard post on the SRX Series offer additional operator protection. This is particularly important when working around racking and within tight locations.
The multi-function handle and the intuitive and ergonomically designed interior of Nissan's lift trucks are made to achieve accurate control while reducing operator comfort. Some of the Operational commands consist of drive, lift and lower, horn, side-shift or other auxiliary function and reach can be performed and executed utilizing this single handle.
