Drive System
Crown has applied the latest generation AC drive system, enhanced with Access 1 2 3 control technology, to provide high torque and energy efficiency. The drive motor is transversely-mounted high above the floor and away from dirt and moisture. Heavy-duty triple reduction, all gear design operates in oil bath and is engineered for durability with reduced vibration and noise. Crown’s Access 1 2 3 technology provides optimum performance and control through intelligent coordination of all truck systems and simplified service with advanced diagnostics. Three modes of performance can be selected to accommodate operator experience or application requirements. The Crown display is used for easy troubleshooting and access to event history. A distribution panel is conveniently located with all test points, control fuses and central wiring for easy troubleshooting.
Brake System
Service brakes are located in the wheel ends with a unique full-circle hydraulic disc design. This design reduces operator pedal effort and improves brake response. Brake service life is increased due to a large full circle friction pad. Access for inspection or replacement is direct and easy, reducing downtime for brake maintenance. The parking brake is activated by a push button, and an acoustic reminder signal is standard. Additionally, the parking brake is located on the end of the motor shaft to take advantage of gear reduction. An optional seat activated automatic parking brake is available.
