Lifting you hig
Since it began production of forklifts more than half a century ago, Nissan
has developed and produced comprehensive ranges of high performing and
innovative materials handling equipment for markets throughout the world.
Today, as part of the Renault-Nissan automotive alliance, the company benefits
from advantages that keep it at the forefront of forklift design - from leading
engine and electric technology, to operator safety, comfort and productivity.
In turn, Nissan Forklift users also benefit from numerous other concepts which
have made Nissan a true global brand - not least, quality, value and customer
support.
Strategically located production facilities
Nissan Forklift’s production facilities are strategically located in Europe, Japan and the USA, providing
the greatest flexibility in responding to the demands of different markets. The European production
facility for forklifts is situated in Pamplona, Spain, with high quality output confirmed through ISO
9001: 2000 certification ISO 14001, and 1996 certification for Environmental Management Systems.
Production of Nissan’s warehouse range is in Gothenburg, Sweden, where the facility also has ISO
9001: 2000 and 14001: 1996 certification.
Future vision
Nissan Forklift product designs are the result of extensive research – basic performance, durability,
safety, operational ease, environmental information and the valuable feedback from a wide
customer base. This painstaking attention to detail leads to materials handling equipment of
the highest technical standard and quality possible.
Engine technology
For example, has been developed with both economical performance and concern for the envi-
ronment as major considerations. All Nissan Forklift LPG engines are equipped as standard with
Nissan’s unique closed loop three-way catalyst to reduce emissions by up to 98% and an engine
management system to provide maximum fuel economy. Nissan diesel engines are also ultra-clean
and ultra fuel efficient.

Multi-function LCD
The multi-function LCD display provides
a wealth of information at a glance for
quick operation status and maintenance
activities.
Tilt levelling (option)
Productivity can be improved at the sim-
ple touch of a button on the tilting lever.
It brings the forks completely horizontal,
enabling the operator to position the
forks to the load quick and easy.
Car-style levers
The automotive influence extends to
the use of automobile-style levers, with
simple actions that let the operator
focus on the job.
Operating ease
BX
When it came to the planning and design
of Nissan’s BX Series workspace, thought-
ful attention was given to the operators’ well
being. Despite the many activities that occur
throughout the operator’s shift, concentration
on his job is critical. For that reason, a stress-
free environment supported by the BX Series’
low noise levels is of absolute importance.
With its hydraulic powered steering the BX
Series is highly responsive to the operator’s
commands and making the truck a truly
manoeuvrable performer. This is even more
enhanced by the automatic deceleration which
is activated when engaging the opposite
travel direction, or when the driver lifts
his foot from the accelerator pedal. Further
driving ease is provided by the optional Steer-
ing Synchroniser. When the truck is returned
to the straight driving direction after turning,
the knob will return to its original position.
The Soft Landing System ensures that the
forks will smoothly decelerate just before
reaching the ground. Even if the operator
keeps the control lever completely down.
Ultra-low noise levels
The BX Series’ low noise levels are of
great influence to the driver’s well being.
Not only does this assist with (significantly)
reducing operator fatigue, it is also beneficial
for those in the surrounding environment.

Perfect performance
BX
The BX Series provides uncompromising
speed and performance thanks to its robust
drive system that includes an AC-powered
drive motor, and a high efficiency controller.
Using a four-digit Personal Identification
Number (PIN), you can choose from three
preset performance modes (economy/power/
high) and it is even possible to select the
performance settings yourself. Regardless of
which mode is chosen, the BX Series can be
fully optimised to achieve long operating hours
and low energy consumption.
For instance the BX Series’ hydraulic powered
steering only consumes energy at demand.
The AC TECH system continuously deter-
mines the exact required amount of energy,
and is dependent on the command given.
Additionally, if the truck is not operated within
preset length of time, the Auto Power Off
function switches off the power automatically.
Along with its 5-mode regenerative braking,
automatic deceleration and other energy
saving features the available working hours
from each battery charge are increased.
Single lever control
The optional exclusive Nissan Single Lever
Control enables simultaneous lifting and tilting
functions for greater productivity. (Double
control levers are available as standard.)
Rollback control
To prevent the truck from rolling down
a slope too fast, the Nissan BX Series
provides a unique Rollback Control
device, ensuring that the truck can
reverse only slowly and at a constant
speed.
Mast Lock System
This standard feature on all models
helps to prevent unsafe situations in-
volving the mast and forks by automati-
cally locking mast and fork movement
when the operator leaves the seat. At
the moment the operator sits down,
hydraulic functions are available to the
operator once again.

Designed to fit your needs 11
BX
For almost every type of operation, there is a
BX Series designed to fit your needs. With 13
models ranging from 1.5 to 3.0 tonne*, the
Nissan BX Series provides custom fit for a
variety of operations, including industry or
warehousing environments. All versions are
available in cushion* and pneumatic tyre
versions.
The cushion BX models are very compact
which make them ideally suited for indoor
operations such as block stacking and working
in surroundings where space is at a premium.
To keep your warehouse operations running
smoothly, cost effective maintenance is an
absolute requirement. On-board diagnostics
run via the BX Series’ Built-In-Test-Equipment
(BITE) module which is integrated into its AC
TECH controller. With clear communication
through the LCD panel readout and key-
pad, operators and service technicians can
intuitively identify with and respond to specific
truck parameters according to the needs of
their job.
Five unique profiles can be programmed to
precisely adjust the truck’s performance in
order to match operator experience and the
load or handling conditions.
Combined with its energy saving features,
reliable design and operator ease, the BX
Series offers a perfect balance - ideal for
owners, the operators and those in the
surrounding environment as well.
