TORQUE CONVERTER This device allows drivers to maximize efficiency by varying the force on the rim of the machine while increasing hydraulic power. Reduced tire wear Full-speed shifts for shorter cycle times A smooth approach to the emptying area to limit emptying overflows and guarantee shorter cycle times.

LOW POWER MODE Guarantees optimal productivity and efficiency, all day long, every day. The advanced systems technology of the 988K allows you to save fuel. With acceleration on demand, the 988K automatically manages engine rpm, while the driver continues to use the left pedal and equipment normally. Provides the driver with the same control and sensitivity as the conventional throttle lock feature. Efficiency of the manual accelerator and ergonomics of the throttle lock. Reduced fuel consumption by up to 20% compared to the 988H model.

ROBUST STRUCTURES Boost your results with ultra-resistant structures that can perform multiple life cycles and withstand the toughest loading conditions. Its fully boxed rear frame resists both torsional and impact forces. The heavy-duty anchors on the steering cylinders effectively transmit the steering loads to the chassis. Axle mounting has been optimized for increased structural integrity. The lower hinge pin, the frame plate and the bearing size have increased for longer life.
