The key to the performance of the 912D lies in the articulated pivot steer chassis. The centre pivot and hydraulic stabilizers keep the machine stable and safe by automatically transferring the weight where it is needed.
The chassis ensures that all wheels constantly track to reduce ground contact and the standard twin tyres offer outstanding traction with minimum ground damage.
The pivot which is centrally placed increases manoeuvrability with a low turning radius and better positioning characteristics. The addition of cruise control makes for more comfortable road useage.
The 912D comes equipped with a Perkins tier 3a common rail engine. This new engine offers an increase in torque of almost 20% giving it just about the best power to weight ration on the market.
Wether the machine is working on steep gradients or poor ground conditions the 912D has the power to cope. The high torque offers more power at lower revs which improves fuel economy and noise levels which are both important for environmental and financial reasons..
The 912D is fitted with a well proven 6 speed ZF softshift transmission. Offering full auto or manual mode this intelligent transmission will automatically shift 2 gears in the right conditions to smoothly increase acceleration regardless of the payload..
