Auto Retard Speed Control (ARSC) allows to easily set a constant downhill travel speed and lets the operator concentrate on steering. Speed can be adjusted appropriately to the slope grade at an increment of 1 km/h by clicking the control lever (± 5 km/h max.) The Payload meter (PLM) manages the payload of each hauling cycle and analyzes the truck’s production volume and working conditions for a specific period. Loaded weight is displayed in real time, both on the cab’s monitor and by external display lamps.
