| 摘要： | Watmough Forestry is now using a second Mercedes-Benz Unimog in a move that allows the company to save on the cost of hiring additional equipment. Watmough Forestry, a provider of arboreal and hedge-cutting services in Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire, received the Unimog from Mercedes-Benz dealer Arthur Ibbett. A U535 variant, the vehicle employs a Euro Ⅵ Step E 7.7-litre in-line six-cylinder engine that produces 349bhp and maximum torque of 1,380Nm. It is paired with the Opti-drive automated manual transmission purpose-designed by Daimler Truck engineers to manage the increased outputs from the Unimog engine, which was introduced in 2021. An optional alternative to the standard-fit manual gearbox, the Opti-drive system is said to offer improved gear change co-ordination and clutch control to produce quicker shifts. All Unimogs have 4x4 chassis with single rear wheels, and gross weights vary from 7.5 to 16.5 tonnes: Watmough's Forestry's new vehicle is rated at 12.7 tonnes gvw. The U535 is equipped with a front PTO (power take-off) and a hydraulics package, and arrived with a three-way tipping body, on to which EH Hutton Coachbuilders, also of Melton Mowbray, mounted a 'chip box' body with side-hinged rear doors. |
