2.2 Functional Description
Chassis
The chassis, in conjunction with the counterweight, forms the supporting base
structure of the truck. It is used to support the main components.
The hydraulic oil reservoir is integrated on the right-hand side and the fuel tank for the
DFG series is on the left side in the chassis.
Operator position and overhead guard
The overhead guard (2) comes in a range of models and protects the driver from
falling objects and other external influences.
All the controls are ergonomically arranged. The steering column and driver's seat
can be adjusted individually.
The controls and warnings on the display unit (8) enable the system to be monitored
during operation, thereby ensuring a very high level of safety.
Steering
The steer cylinder of the hydrostatic steering is integrated in the steer axle (12) and
is controlled by the power steering. The steer axle is fully floating in the chassis to
ensure excellent grip even on non-level surfaces.
Wheels
All wheels are located within the truck geometry. A choice of pneumatic or
superelastic tyres are available.
Engine
High performance, water-cooled diesel and LPG engines with long useful lives and
low consumption and emission levels.
Electrical system
12 volt system with threephase alternator. A start block prevents malfunctions when
the truck is powered up. For diesel engines, a rapid pre-heat system is installed; LPG
motors have an electronic ignition system for rapid and trouble-free engine starting.
The key switch is used to stop the engine.
