Manufactured in India this truck is designed to cope with challenging working operations and offers low maintenance needs. Braking systems are configured to deliver high safety levels along with low service needs. The 47.7tonne capacity truck has the option of a flat floor body, a dual slope body and a quarry body, to better suit specific operating requirements. The flat floor body suits duties such as dumping into crushers and on ramp hauls of up to 12% while the dual slope body can be used on ramp hauls steeper than 12% in construction or quarrying operations. The quarry body can cope with soft- medium hardness rock in quarrying applications and will not require additional liners if used in limestone operations
