Do you know the climbing skills of mining trucks?

The climbing of the vehicle is a technical task. If the technique is a little careless, it will cause the phenomenon of "sliding", and in severe cases, it will cause casualties. Let's take a look at the 4-point climbing skills of the mine-used four-unlike car:

1. Difficulty (even slipping) when the vehicle starts with a heavy load, especially for new drivers with insufficient driving experience.
After applying the parking brake on the vehicle, the driver can use large-sized stones, wedge-shaped wood and other items to pad behind the driving wheels, and then slowly release the parking brake. After confirming that the vehicle has no signs of moving backwards, Then implement the start. This method reduces the difficulty of starting on a half-slope with heavy loads, and generally can start smoothly.
2. When the vehicle climbs a slope with a heavy load, especially on a long slope with a large slope, the driver must select a suitable gear in advance and try to avoid changing gears midway, especially for new drivers with insufficient driving experience. If they want to change gears, they should Choose a section of road that is more open.
When upshifting, the vehicle must reach a higher speed, and the shifting action must be timely and decisive. Otherwise, even if the gear is shifted to a high gear, the vehicle speed may not increase rapidly due to excessive engine stall and load climbing, and thus cannot provide enough power. It has to be downshifted, which is a taboo for heavy load climbing.
3. If the engine power is insufficient, downshift should be performed in advance. Otherwise, once the engine stalls too much, the engine may still not be able to provide enough power to climb the slope after the engine stalls too much. The shift action must be accurate and timely. Once the gear lever fails to move into the desired gear,
4. The driver should be prepared for braking to prevent the vehicle from "sliding" due to excessive time spent during the gear shifting process.
Note: Since most of the heavy-duty vehicles now use a transmission with a synchronizer, it is generally possible to complete the shifting action relatively easily during the shifting process.
