Saftey Features
Access from ground for the components of the steer-
ing and dumping system which require regular service.
Safe Access to all engine components. Service plat-
forms on either side provide excellent access.
Cab set back for protection in case of a rear end
collision. Two stair ladders with handrails lead safely
to and from the upper deck, one on either side of the
radiator. Other set-ups are optional.
Operator adjustable cruise control for retarding.
Will bring truck down to and hold at set speed.
The T 262 system will retard with up to 2983 kW /
4000 hp on a continuous basis.
Automatic Two Speed Over Speed automatically
limits maximum speed by reducing propel torque or by
applying retarding power. Separate settings for loaded
and empty truck.
Fire Prevention by Design: Fuel and hydraulics
carrying components and heat sources are separated as
much as feasible. Critical hydraulic hoses are encased in
non permeable hose sleeves. Exhaust pipes are covered
and insulated by special non burning tubes impervious to
oil. They are preshaped to fit each individual pipe section.
