Hitch

Superb off-road mobility The 360° rotating hitch allows independent movement of the tractor unit and the load unit, eliminating frame twist. This independent movement provides the required flexi- bility which allows the wheels to maintain good ground contact in rough off-road conditions.

No service needed The hitch has permanent greased tapered roller bear- ings (1) . The intermediate shaft has permanent greased bearings (2) . These features eliminate service, leave more time for production and reduce operating costs.

Placement of hitch Stability is crucial to an articulated hauler. The high placement of the hitch (3) close to the load unit’s cen- ter of gravity maximizes stability. This is a requirement when tackling off-road conditions and for high-speed hauling. An additional benefit is the high clearance (4) under the hitch.
