This Renault C460 8x4 tractor from MST Transports could also be seen outdoors. |
|
| The tractor is equiped with a Cormach 87000 crane in E8 version. This extends to 18 meter where it will lift 3,06 tons. With the F186 jib it will lift 800 kg at about 30 meters.
|
|
This 8x4 tractor wasn't ordered with the raised exhaust, but the mufler was placed behind the 2nd front axle. We see the exhaust pipe mounted beside the crane foot. A raised exhaust would have taken away the space that is now used to install the crane very close behind the cab.
|
|
Below the demountable flatbed we see the 5th wheel. Around it they mounted 4 twistlocks that are used to secure the flatbed. The rear axles are the heavy ones with planetary drive.
|
|
The flatbed can be extended to the rear, this way it can also carry longer goods.
|
|
The flatbed is placed on wooden blocks for this show, just so that you can see the 5th wheel. Normaly it will be mounted lower so that it fits on the twistlocks. A drawbar coupling has been mounted aswell.
|
|
They have chosen the low sleeper cab, which gives it a nice compact look.
|
|
I like the new Renault models, but unfortunately you don't see them so often in these applications. With these colors, together with the matching colors of the crane, for me it was one of the best of this show!
