Mechanical drive Truck steering system The MacPherson front suspension system has a special Aframe between each wheel and the main frame. The wider space created between the front wheels and the main frame increases the turning angle of the wheels. The turning radius of the HD1500-7 is 12.2 m 40', which provides excellent maneuverability in tight loading and dumping conditions. In addition, a secondary steering system provides emergency hydraulic power in the case of sudden loss of engine power or steering hydraulic pressure. The steering accumulators comply with ISO-5010 standards. The...
