Rapid reach trucks
January 1st 2008 Nissan's reach truck range now
extends from 1.4 to 2.5t capacity,
with three-stage masts lifting to
10.8m and tilting carriages to
increase load safety.
The range is available in cold
store, narrow aisle and three and
four directional versions and,
according to Nissan, the trucks
have the fastest acceleration in
their class.
Emphasis with the 1.4 to 2t UNS
and USS (narrow aisle) models is
on operator comfort to boost
productivity. The driver's workplace
has been designed to reduce
unnecessary movement and strain.
Servo fingertip controls are used
for pinpoint lifting and stacking
accuracy and are operated with a
gentle rearward movement. The
mini steering wheel is also servoassisted
and mounted on a
'floating' armrest.
To ensure a good view of the
load at high lift heights, the seat's
built-in tilt function responds
directly to pressure from the
operator to an angle of 15°.
Acceleration is 0 to 10km/h in
2.5sec, and all models are
programmable. More articles from Nissan Motor (GB) Limited: |
