Transmission and Power train Transmission shall be fully automatic, computer controlled, planetary gear design, neutral only start function, with a minimum of 6 forward gears and 1 reverse gear. The transmission control shall have a gear hold and selectable top gear function The transmission shall have an integral hydraulic retarder that has operator selectable multi levels of retarding. The hauler shall have a maximum forward speed of not less than 34.37 mph (55.3 kph). The hauler shall have a maximum reverse speed of not less than 5.27 mph (8.48 kph). The transmission shall be designed and built by the articulated hauler manufacturer. The torque converter shall have automatic lock-up in all forward gears. The output transfer gear group (OTG) shall be equipped with a dedicated pressure and lubrication system that consists of a gear pump, suction screen, spin-on filter, cooler and test ports. There shall be a filter service indicator lamp located on the instrument panel. The OTG shall have an operator selectable longitudinal driveline differential with a 100% lock-up on the go clutch. Steering The steering shall be a cushioned steering system with a hand metering unit, a single load sensing variable displacement piston pump, two double-acting cushioned steer cylinders that allow a minimum 45 of right or left articulation angle. An electronic secondary steering system, which meets ISO 5010 at gross vehicles weight, shall be provided. The SAE turning radius shall be no more than 286 in (7254 mm). The secondary steering system shall be able to be tested without starting the machine. Brakes The service brakes shall be fully hydraulic applied dry disc brakes on the front, center and rear axles. Braking shall comply with ISO 3450 and SAE J1473 at the gross vehicle weight. The parking/emergency brake shall be a spring-applied, oil released disc brake with hydraulic accumulator located on the center axle, and shall be independent of the service brakes. Hydraulic systems The hydraulic system shall consist of a engine driven load sensing variable displacement piston pump for steering, engine driven gear pump for hoist and brake cooling, variable speed hydraulic engine cooling fan, hydraulic driven cooling fan system. The body hoist system shall have two single-stage double acting cylinders. When lowering the body the hydraulic cylinders shall have full power down capability. The body rise time shall be no more than 12 seconds, with a body lower time of no more than 12 seconds.
