Scania R 490 - Van der Vlist

A sharp Scania R 490 with 4-axle low loader of Van der Vlist from Groot-Ammers (NL) stood parked with cargo at the border near Venlo (NL).

The truck is this sharp Scania R 490 with 10x4-drive line. The truck is powered by a Scania DC13, a 12.7 liter 6-cylinder line engine with 490 hp. This truck has a maximum allowable mass of 52 tonnes, the truck itself has a mass of already 15.2 tonnes.

Behind the cabin are the large diesel tank and storage compartments made. Behind the front axle are two AdBlue tanks installed, behind the rear axles are the compressed-air tanks installed.

For 5-axle trucks is the use of an extended gooseneck required. The last axle is non-driven but steerable. This is to get a very small turning circle. The truck is 8.1 meters long.

On this side is the muffler installed behind the front axle.

Attached is a 4-axle Nooteboom Euro-96-04 low loader with pendel axles.

The low loader has a maximum load capacity of 73.5 tonnes. The bed is three meters extendable.

The cargo is a Kalmar DCE100 fork lift with a mass of 42 tonnes and with a transport breadth of five meters.

A very sharp combination!
