The D 65, off highway dumper is a compact machine, and has dimensions which make it suitable to work in tight conditions. It has a height (at driving post) of 2140 mm and width of 2050 mm, making it the ideal machine to use in confined spaces such as small tunnels.
The manoeuvrability of the dumper is an added feature that makes it suitable for operation in restrained spaces.
The 4 wheel drive allows for 3 steering modes:
1.
2 wheel steering for normal road operation:
2.
wheel opposed steering for tight turning with minimum radius of 3.1m:
3.
4 wheel unidirectional steering for side (crab) movement, for easy access to tight corners
The 180o reversible driving post allows for the driver to have complete and unobstructed visibility at all times and in whichever direction he is moving.
The D65 has a permanent 4 wheel drive, automotive hydrostatic transmission with variable displacement pump for smooth response and infinitely variable speed of the vehicle
The heavy duty, fully floating type axles, with fixed rear and oscillating front axle ensure stability and adherence to terrain in difficult underfoot conditions keeping the skip always straight.
