We present to your attention the Carama
0:21
65 951 generation K.
0:29
This is a dump truck with a dump body
0:32
capacity of 425 cubic m. This dump truck
0:36
is designed for road construction, for
0:38
housing construction, that is for all
0:41
those areas where it is necessary to
0:43
transfer bulk cargo.
1:09
This dump truck uses a cab that is
1:11
manufactured at the frame factory. The
1:14
cabin is made of galvanized steel with
1:17
subsequent priming which provides
1:19
excellent corrosion resistance.
1:24
This cabin it also meets all the
1:26
standards of passive safety which
1:29
favorably affects the safety of the
1:30
driver himself.
1:33
LED headlights are used here which
1:35
provide very good road lighting and do
1:37
not require replacement for a long time
1:40
of operation of the car.
1:44
You also see here a three section metal
1:46
bumper. Here is a section two section
1:49
three section. The design of which is
1:51
very suitable for construction work.
1:54
That is if in any other cars.
2:01
In case of any damage you have to remove
2:03
the entire bumper for repair. Then here
2:06
you can take remove one section and
2:09
accordingly repair it. It will be very
2:12
fast and convenient.
2:22
For the convenience and comfort of the
2:24
driver, a four-point cup suspension is
2:27
used. This will ensure a smooth and
2:29
smooth outcome and drivers will be
2:31
satisfied with this car on this
2:33
indicator.
2:38
The cab is spacious with enhanced
2:41
ergonomics and convenience to support
2:43
driver comfort during operations.
2:49
Equipped with an air suspension seat, it
2:52
ensures a comfortable experience across
2:54
uneven terrains.
2:58
Feel yourself on all known levels. There
3:00
are armrests that can be lowered and
3:03
raised.
3:05
It is also comfortable to drive the car.
3:08
Many drivers note very good visibility.
3:10
That is here we have used large mirrors
3:14
through which you can see a lot of what
3:16
is happening behind the car and to some
3:18
extent on the side of the car.
3:23
A lot of drivers admire the steering
3:25
wheel which is more compact compared to
3:28
the earlier version making driving more
3:31
convenient.
3:36
equipped with keys for remote opening
3:38
and closing of doors. We also have an
3:41
engine start button here. That is, we no
3:44
longer have the key inserted. It doesn't
3:47
turn anywhere.
3:50
The car features a dedicated socket to
3:53
operate and start using the button.
4:03
It includes a 16-speed manual
4:06
transmission manufactured by Zeama.
4:11
It is characterized by a fairly easy
4:13
switch
4:16
in a box.
4:23
The Kama 65 951 comes with an advanced
4:27
onboard information system
4:30
in which the driver in addition to
4:32
listening to music or watching videos
4:35
can also look at the state of some car
4:37
systems through
4:41
the menu allows access to data like fuel
4:44
consumption providing detailed insights.
4:49
You can too
4:52
enable navigation.
4:54
We have pre-installed navigation here.
4:57
Electric window lifters are used. That
5:00
is the driver from his seat can open the
5:02
window with a light press of both the
5:05
left and right hand. You can also
5:08
remotely adjust the viewing angle of the
5:10
mirrors.
5:16
That is the driver looks from him.
5:20
The physical size can be adjusted to
5:22
suit the mirror without leaving the
5:24
driver's seat. The climate system
5:27
ensures the driver's comfort in work.
5:32
Without the help of two literally
5:34
switches, the driver can adjust the
5:36
temperature and blowing force that is
5:38
comfortable for him.
5:43
Higher.
5:45
The direction of flows is regulated with
5:47
the help of such push button switches.
5:53
Also, of course, there is an air
5:55
conditioner which is also automatically
5:57
turned on when setting a certain
6:00
temperature at the request of our
6:02
customers was developed and implemented
6:04
into the car design.
6:07
Kama's 65951
6:09
ergonomic box. Here you see a niche for
6:13
a bottle of water. Here the driver can
6:15
place some of his small things. And here
6:18
we also have a clothing compartment that
6:20
closes with a lid which can also serve
6:23
as a table when the driver is resting.
6:29
At the top of the cabin we have two
6:31
luggage boxes in which the driver can
6:33
place some of his things including
6:36
documentation.
6:41
In the roof of the cab, we see a simple
6:43
mechanical hatch created so that the
6:46
driver can improve his living conditions
6:48
given in the cab.
7:05
The car is equipped with a powerful
7:07
six-cylinder engine with a volume of 13
7:10
L. This engine is also used in our
7:13
well-known 5491
7:16
tractors. The engine capacity is 482
7:19
horsepower torque at 300 newtons per
7:21
meter.
7:43
These characteristics provide the car
7:45
with excellent traction and dynamic
7:48
characteristics. The fuel volume is 63 L
7:51
of oil. Also, high-performance oil pump
7:55
and four air filters provide a large
7:58
service interval of 80,000 kilo.
8:03
The 400 L tank ensures it can handle
8:06
transport tasks effectively.
8:11
For operation in harsh winter
8:13
conditions, the car is equipped with a
8:15
liquid engine heater with a capacity of
8:17
15 kow. And for comfortable operation of
8:21
the driver in the cabin, an autonomous
8:23
heater with a capacity of 2 kW is
8:26
installed.
8:30
The car frame is constructed from high
8:32
strength steel for durability, primed
8:34
and cut.
8:36
The car is equipped with heavy lifting
8:39
axles. The rear axles can withstand a
8:42
load of up to 16 tons each. The front
8:45
axles can withstand a load of up to nine
8:48
tons each.
8:52
On the Kasol again 951 dump trucks,
8:55
tires with an increased load capacity of
8:57
24 radius were used. In addition to the
9:01
fact that they provide a full load of
9:03
the car without any damage, they as you
9:06
can see are quite so it has a high
9:08
radius and this has a favorable effect
9:11
on the off-road properties of the car.
9:13
that is its clearance is increased.
9:22
The braking mechanism on this car is
9:24
Barabanov, a type that is more suitable
9:26
for use in construction conditions. The
9:30
braking system is equipped with the
9:32
following electronic systems. This
9:34
stability system is an anti-skit system
9:36
and also ABC
10:14
The car is equipped with speed limiters
10:16
which is triggered by a raised platform.
10:25
An exhaust heating system is installed
10:27
on the platform activated by a switch.
10:34
Heat. Heat.
