Performance and Productivity – Power Train Integrated power train with more power, greater performance and lower fuel consumption – the power to do more work. Mechanically Actuated Electronic Unit Injection (MEUI). A highly evolved fuel system with a proven record of reliability in the field. It combines the technical advancement of an electronic control system with the simplicity of direct mechanically controlled unit fuel injection.
Performance and Productivity – Suspension and Traction Control Suspension systems and traction control – delivering power to the ground in all conditions. Inter-Axle Differential Lock. Locks all three axles in unison and modifies torque distribution for excellent traction in poor underfoot conditions and on grades. It is operated by a switch located at the footrest. Cross-Axle Differential Locks.
Performance and Productivity – Ejector Designed to disperse the load on-the-go for faster cycle times and lower spreading costs. Ejector. The 740 Ejector is designed to disperse the load on-the-go for faster cycle times and lower spreading costs. The ejector body also offers clean load ejection and the capability to work in areas with restricted overhead clearance and soft underfoot conditions. Versatility. The 740 Ejector is based on the standard 740 Articulated Truck and shares all its versatility.
Durability and Reliability High availability leads to high productivity. Excellent durability keeps ownership costs low. Hitch Construction. Two-piece bolted hitch features a strong, durable cast steel head bolted to a hardwearing forged steel tube. The hitch tube has hardened bearing areas and a hardened thrust face for reduced maintenance and longer life. Service Brakes. Oil-cooled, multiple disc brakes are continuously cooled for exceptional non-fading braking.
