4 Visionary design. Ergonomically driven. The SP 3500 improves productivity by delivering Ergonomics drives design on the performance you can safely use. SP 3500 Series. It accounts for every A visionary design demonstrates Crown s aspect of the operator-stockpicker interface, ergonomics leadership with the highest levels from the control orientation and size of the of visibility, comfort and stability. platform to side gates and portable task tools. Putting an operator in a stockpicker with limited visibility is like putting a tightrope walker in a straightjacket. It s not likely to inspire confidence, safety or productivity, especially at heights. The SP 3500 Series offers a clear advantage. Based on extensive ergonomics studies, it focuses on how operators work at their best in stockpicking applications. That explains its The SP 3500 Series comes by productivity honestly, because it s based on proven ergonomics. You ll find ergonomics advantages all around the operator s compartment. The large platform gives operators more room to move. Standard power steering provides smooth, precise operation. Crown s unique anti-fatigue floor mat features a microcellular composition that reduces the effects of vibration and standing fatigue, while enhancing operator stability. exceptional visibility, far superior to any truck in its class. You won t find a larger platform window or a clearer view of pick locations and intersecting aisles. At lower elevations, a clear visibility mast offers an unobstructed view. As a result, operators perform tasks faster, easily locating stock items before they reach them. A huge visibility advantage on the SP 3500 Series eliminates tunnel vision and helps operators safely improve productivity. SP 3500 Series Competitor Operators also benefit from storage areas for portable task tools, as well as Crown s Work Assist accessories, including an optional universal clamp system for convenient mounting of fixed tools such as RF terminals and scanning guns. Control orientation also demonstrates Crown s ergonomics expertise. Crown uses a twist grip, similar to the type used on motorcycles, versus the joysticks used on many other stockpickers. With Crown s solid, fixed control handle, you ll see the difference in operator stability and confidence, especially when stopping and starting. Ergonomics analysis and user preference have confirmed the benefits of Crown s twist-grip design. It s more comfortable to use than the competitors pivoting joystick design because the wrist moves naturally. In addition, Crown s control handle gives operators a performance edge with its raised index finger cam. Crown Crown s index finger cam facilitates easy directional changes while the fixed control provides operator stability. Competitor Forward Travel To activate forward travel with the Crown twist grip, operators simply position their index finger over the cam and push downward. This allows the wrist to stay very close to a neutral position while the hand rolls over the top and behind the handle. Neutral Position While the neutral position appears to be similar on the two designs, the Crown design provides a hand hold without the risk of initiating unwanted traction, as is possible with the joystick design. Crown maintains this stability advantage during forward or reverse travel. Reverse Travel For reverse travel with the Crown design, operators hook their index finger over the cam and pull it towards them. Again, the wrist stays very close to its orientation in the neutral position. Whenever the twist grip is released, the handle returns to the neutral position.

5 Confidence at heights. 2 3 Performance that adds up. Imagine working on the ledge of a three-story building every day. It s easy to see how confidence affects stockpicking performance, productivity and safety. The Crown SP 3500 Series builds operator confidence with a substantial stability advantage. 1 4 Crown s AC motor, AC traction control and Access Comprehensive System Control give you the performance advantage you need to improve stockpicking safety and productivity. Travel Speed Lowered The SP 3500 Series mast delivers rock-solid stability and cushioned staging for superior operator confidence at height. Crown 24V 7.5 Operators quickly notice the stability advantages of Crown SP 3500 Series Stockpickers over any other. Crown s unique Load Path Stability Design is the key to a solid foundation. It evenly distributes the force of the load from the platform through the frame and power unit, through the drive unit and to the ground. That s why the SP 3500 Series features Four points of solid contact on the SP 3500 Series, with right-hand fixed control, enhance operator stability and confidence at height. the largest and heaviest drive unit and largest drive tire (13 ) in the industry. It s been designed to deliver superior performance and stability over uneven warehouse floors and proven in the most demanding applications on Crown s stockpicker, reach and turret trucks. Unlike other stockpicker trucks that incorporate plastic into much of the power unit, the SP 3500 Series uses heavy gauge steel in the skirt, doors and battery cover. This additional weight, combined with the heavy-duty mast, gives the SP 3500 Series substantial load capacity advantages at height and further contributes to superior stability. Crown s Load Path Stability Design 1 Heavy gauge, wide outer C-channels and 2 inner I-beams provide superior front-to-back operator platform stability. 3 Stabilizing angular cross members tie C-channels and I-beams together to reduce mast twist and sway. 4 Exclusive vertical mast braces stiffen the outer rails to minimize lateral platform sway. Side gates, integrated into the truck s control system, protect operators when and where intended, and easily move out of the way when not needed. Their sturdy construction gives operators an added measure of stability and confidence when performing picking tasks. On many stockpickers, braking at higher elevations easily shakes an operator s confidence, including sudden stops that may throw the operator or load off balance. The SP 3500 Series avoids this scenario with Crown s patented Intelligent Braking System, which combines motor and friction braking. Crown s Access Comprehensive System Control continuously monitors operator lift height and other variables, automatically adjusting braking force to ensure appropriate braking at all heights. Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Motor Braking Friction + Braking = You ll also benefit from other features designed to deliver performance you can safely use. Crown s Intelligent Steering, another Access active safety feature, slows the SP 3500 Series automatically as the steering angle increases. Linear speed provides smooth acceleration from the lowest to the highest elevations. And the SP 3500 Series further improves productivity with the industry s fastest travel speeds. Optimum braking at heights The Crown Intelligent Braking System uses Crown AC traction motor braking combined with optimum amounts of friction braking. The appropriate level of braking is applied dependent upon lift heights, travel speed, direction of travel and other operating conditions Top travel speed in transport (mph) Travel Speed at Heights Fork Height (inches) Competitor 36V Speed (mph) 6.5 Crown s linear speed (standard) Competitor s stepped speed (standard) Crown s linear speed control (stepless) eliminates wasted productivity typical with a stepped speed implementation. Competitors use simple height switches on the mast, while the SP 3500 Series uses a variable height sensor to measure the exact platform height and determine the optimum speed level. This important productivity feature, optional on many others, is standard on all Crown stockpickers. It s your productivity advantage.
