Advanced K-ATOMiCS
The electronically controlled all clutch modulation system,
“K-ATOMiCS”, optimizes the clutch engagement oil pressure
at every gear. This system optimizes the clutch lock-up
process for smoother shifting with minimal torque shock.
“Skip-shift” function
When driving uphill, the skip-shift function automatically
selects the gear according to the slope of the grade. It
reduces the number of down-shifts, makes the driving
smoother, improves the operator’s comfort, and reduces
spilling of material.
Supplementary Steering
Automatic supplementary steering is provided as a standard
feature.
The MacPherson Strut-Type Front Suspension
The MacPherson-type independent suspension is utilized
on the front wheels. This linkage arrangement allows the
front wheel to follow the undulation of the road surface
smoothly, realizing excellent riding comfort.
Push Button Actuated Auxiliary Brake
All four wet disc brakes are activated when the auxiliary
brake button, located on the dash board, is deployed.
In addition, the brakes will
automatically apply when the
hydraulic pressure drops
below the specified level.
Rear LED Lighting Rack
Frame mounted LED lighting rack at the rear of the truck
provides tail, brake, and flasher lights. In addition, this
bracket, protected from falling objects by the body
structure, includes the reverse horn and back-up lights.
