Ergonomics and Operator Comfort
The Platinum TX Series offers a variety of operator conveniences for enhanced comfort and increased productivity, including a full suspension cloth seat with weight and back-angle adjustment, hip restraints and retractable seat belt. Its infinitely adjustable tilt steering column enhances operator comfort. A compact front cowl design offers generous leg and foot room. Also included is an anti-fatigue cushioned floor mat for a smoother, more comfortable ride.

The on-demand, hydraulic powered steering system reduces operator effort for easier maneuvering. Its hydraulic load sensing valve diverts fluid for priority to the steering system.

Standard deck-mounted hydraulic control levers offer enhanced ergonomics.  Optional fingertip control levers, with adjustable armrest, provide improved comfort.
The LCD dash display visibly communicates truck status and warnings for operator awareness including: travel speed (above 2 mph) and rear wheel angle indicator (less than 2 mph), battery capacity,hour meter (four-mode), time and day of week, brake warning, seat belt warning and selected powermode.

The Platinum TX Series’ Safety System  includes:Return-to-Neutral,  Mast Lock (automatically locking mast lift and tilt when the operator leaves the seat),Turn Control (automatic restriction of travel speedand acceleration during turning) and Controlled Rollback (reducing quick truck movement down a gradient when the accelerator is released).

Operational Efficiency
The Platinum TX Series’ AC TECH controller provides lower battery consumption and optimum operating efficiencies through regenerative braking, automatic deceleration, and on-demand power steering.Regenerative braking is achieved through switch-back/plugging; foot applied braking, neutral braking and controlled rollback.  The combined impact is an increase in the number of working hours per battery charge. An adjustable auto-power off feature will switch off the electrical system if the truck sits idle for a predetermined time period, further extending battery life.

Battery and Electrical
Available with a 36 or 48 volt electrical system, the IP65 rated AC TECH motor controllers feature transistorized power inverters for DC to three phase AC power conversion.  The single contactor design reduces maintenance.  An emergency stop/power disconnect button shuts off truck power in case of an emergency.

Brake System
Six-disc wet type brakes prolong brake life and offer constant braking efficiency. Brakes are fully enclosed within the drive unit, to prevent dust and dirt contamination. Six-disc type brake achieves higher braking performance over the life of the brakes. Service brake life is extended due to the adjustable four-mode regenerative braking system. A hand-actuated parking brake, with lock release button, is located on the cowl within easy reach.

Truck and Mast Design
Modern and compact wedge-shaped design makes the truck highly maneuverable in confined areas.Standard dual rear wheels provide additional stability,especially during high loading conditions.

Four-piece reinforced overhead guard design allows easy replacement should individual parts become damaged. Slotted design simplifies overhead battery replacement.
The flat face mast design features rolled steel channels, large cross sections, and thick inner rails for increased capacity retention. Side thrust rollerson the fork carriage are easily accessed for carriage adjustment. Optional Nissan Forklift exclusive OPTIVIEW®, three-stage mast design offers greater visibility for improved load handling.

Drive Unit
Dual front wheel drive provides excellent traction and braking power. Rugged dual AC powered drive motors offer more power and quicker response. The TX Series’ individually controlled drive motors mean that power is transferred to each motorindependently, depending upon turn angle input. For tighter turns, the inner drive wheel counter-rotates,allowing the truck to turn on the spot.

Hydraulics
Powerful AC hydraulic pump motor powers lift andtilt operations, as well as the on-demand power steering system. Hydraulic operation is infinitely variable through the AC TECH controller, resulting in longer battery life.

Reduced Maintenance
The TX Platinum Series features a 100% AC-powered system, including brushless, dual drive motors and a hydraulic pump motor (which also powers the steering system). On-demand steering is achieved through priority hydraulic load sensingvalve, eliminating the use of separate steering motor.The design greatly reduces the number of service-able parts including commutators, contactors, and brushes; eliminating expenses related to inspection and replacement of these items, for lower overall operating costs.

As a safeguard, all motors and controllers have thermal protection as standard.  In the event that overheating occurs, an indicator will warn the operator, and the truck’s performance level will automatically be reduced – allowing the operator to complete his or her task before returning to the service area for further cool-down.

The AC TECH controller includes built-in-test-equipment with self-diagnostics providing coded service history, which is logged by hour meter reading. Troubleshooting through the instrument panel allows rapid access to service requirements.Rugged, gas spring de-tent keeps the hood up and out of the way during routine battery maintenance inspections. Removable two-piece floorboard provides access to drive and hydraulic pump motors.Hydraulic oil tank location makes daily level checks and periodic refills fast and simple.

Frame-mounted mast design allows easier access to final drive, eliminating the need to disassemble transmission and drive motors to gain access to the brakes.
