FEATURES
EATURES
The combination of high travel speeds and an efficient engine with low emissions
delivers maximum productivity at the lowest cost.
High Performance SAA6D140E-3 Engine
This engine delivers faster acceleration and
higher travel speeds with the highest horsepower
per ton in its class. Advanced technology, such
as high-pressure electronic controlled injection
system (CRI), air to air aftercooler and an
efficient turbocharger enabling the engine to suit
low emission. High torque at low speed,
impressive acceleration and low fuel
consumption ensure maximum productivity.
Interaxle & Differential Locking
Systems
The full-time six-wheel drive system
reduces slippage. A wet multiple-disk
interaxle clutch also locks the three axles
in unison for greater traction. The interaxle
lock and differential locks can be
switched on and off while the truck is
travelling, thereby boosting productivity.
In addition, the differential lock switch,
which is a three position switch, can
lock up the rear axle differentials only,
or all axles for
maximum
performance in the
worst conditions.
