Hydrema

All-around visibility

Hydrema U.S., Inc. says the cab of its 922C articulated dump truck sits high on the body and has an inclined narrow hood, which provides the operator with all-around visibility. Additional features include broad mirrors for added visibility when in reverse, a climate-control system for operator comfort, and user-friendly steering and joystick controls. The truck has a 15.7-cubic-yard capacity and automatically changes pressure between cylinders while dumping on uneven ground to prevent tip over.
