"MAN" is a well-known automaker from Germany. He is engaged in the production of trucks, buses and engines. The history of the company began in the 18th century. But only in 1915 the first trucks left the assembly line of the enterprise.

Tractors "MAN" (photos of them can be seen in the article) meet modern requirements for safety and environmental friendliness. They are comfortable and able to work in different conditions.

Cabin of cars

"MAN" (tractors) are produced with several variants of cabs:

• Cabs marked "M" are suitable for cars that are operated in urban conditions. They are intended only for movement during the working day.

• "L" - marking means a long cab with one berth. Such cabs are installed on the models of cars, when working on which infrequent stops at night for rest are possible.

• "LX" - cabs are installed on the trunk truck models. They have a high roof and two beds for night rest.

There are several ways to attach the cab. The choice of support depends on the purpose of the car, the intensity of use and other indicators. These are the following types of fastening:

• The cab is fixed in 4 points using shock absorbers and spring type suspension. The front is equipped with a lever with 2 supports for tilting the cab. Rear supports are represented by a rocker arm with locks. Both front and rear are fitted with 2 shock absorbers, which, due to the presence of 5 modes, can balance the fluctuations and differences in weight.

• Mounting the cab on the air suspension. Makes travel more comfortable, even when driving on bad roads. Vibration is transmitted to a lesser extent. In addition, this type of attachment rarely breaks.

Construction of cars
