Demensions.
All dimensions are approximate. Dimensions are with standard dual slope body 344-7340 and 37.00-R57 tires.
Retarding PERFORMANCE
To determine retarding performance: Add lengths of all downhill segments and, using this total, refer to proper retarding chart. Read from gross weight down to the percent effective grade. Effective grade equals actual % grade minus 1% for each 10 kg/t (20 lb/ton) of rolling resistance. From this weight-effective grade point, read horizontally to the curve with the highest obtainable gear, then down to maximum descent speed brakes can properly handle without exceeding cooling capacity. The following charts are based on these conditions: 32° C (90° F) ambient temperature, at sea level, with 37.00-R57 tires.
NOTE: Select the proper gear to maintain engine rpm at the highest possible level, without overspeeding the engine. If cooling oil overheats, reduce ground speed to allow transmission to shift to the next lower speed range.
Gradeability/Speed/Rimpull
To determine gradeability performance: Read from gross weight down to the percent of total resistance. Total resistance equals actual percent grade plus 1% for each 10 kg/t (20 lb/ton) of rolling resistance. From this weight-resistance point, read horizontally to the curve with the highest obtainable gear, then down to maximum speed. Usable rimpull will depend upon traction available and weight on drive wheels.
1. Includes: common arrangement, 100% fuel (2082 L/550 gal), fluids and standard mandatory attachments.
2. Weights will vary dependent on configuration and may include ±2% variation due to standard material tolerances.
3. Calculations include 3% debris allowance. However, actual debris allowance should be considered based upon known site conditions.
4. It is recommended to work with your Global Mining representative to calculate target payload per specific site.
