Improved comfort & productivity
June 1st 2010 Minimising the impact of shock and
vibration on operators standing on
truck platforms, while at the same
time maximising stability and
comfort, Crown has incorporated its
new FlexRide floating operator
suspension system in two new lift
truck lines: the WT 3000 series of
powered pallet trucks and the RC
5500 series of stand-up counterbalanced
trucks. The system
includes a patented weight
adjustment feature that allows
operators to adjust
the suspension to
suit their individual
bodyweight, for even greater comfort.
The low step on the WT 3000 and
RC 5500 Series makes it easier for
drivers to step in and out of the
truck during a shift, which means
they can work faster and more
efficiently. Further highlights of
Crown's stand-up design include soft
touch points with shock-absorbing
padding, a contoured design and
unrivalled workspace. Electronic
steering is standard
on the RC 5500 and optional on the
WT 3000.
Electronic steering is standard on
the RC 5500 and optional on the WT
3000. The the X10 handle is said to
provide intuitive controls on the WT
3000 Series. More articles from Crown Gabelstapler GmbH & Co.KG: |
