Auto Retard Speed Control (ARSC)

Auto Retard Speed Control (ARSC) allows to easily set a constant downhill travel speed and lets the operator concentrate on steering. Speed can be adjusted appropriately to the slope grade at an increment of 1 km/h by clicking the control lever (± 5 km/h max.)

HD1500-8

Small turning radius

The MacPherson strut type front suspension has a special A-frame between each wheel and the main frame. The wider space created between the front wheels and the main frame increases the turning angle of the wheels. The larger this turning angle, the smaller the turning radius of the truck.

Payload meter (PLM)

The Payload meter (PLM) manages the payload of each hauling cycle and analyzes the truck’s production volume and working conditions for a specific period. Loaded weight is displayed in real time, both on the cab’s monitor and by external display lamps.

Easy maintenance

Battery disconnect switch For convenience in maintenance/ service, a battery disconnect switch is located on the left side of the vehicle, and is accessible from the ground level.

Service center A convenient service center is located on the bottom part of the steering/hoist tank. It facilitates engine oil, coolant, transmission oil, steering & hoist oil, and brake cooling oil refilling at the same location.

Centralized arrangement of filters The filters are centralized for easy service.

Auto greasing system This system automatically supplies grease to each greasing point, at preset times. It is no longer necessary to periodically lubricate with a manual pump. Oil reservoir is accessible to refill from the ground level.

Komtrax Plus continuously monitors your machine’s settings, condition, fuel usage and performance along with operating practices. This comprehensive data set is designed to help prolong your quarry and mining machine’s life, improve its efficiency and optimise production levels and costs.
