MAN is a well-known car manufacturer from Germany. It is engaged in the production of trucks, buses and engines. The history of the company began in the 18th century. But it wasn't until 1915 that the first trucks rolled off the production line.

MAN tractors (their photo can be seen in the article) meet modern safety and environmental requirements. They are comfortable and able to work in various conditions.

Car cabin

"MAN" (tractors) are available with several cab options:

Cabins marked "M" are suitable for vehicles that are operated in urban areas. They are only for movement during the working day

"L" - marking indicates a long cab with one berth. These cabs are installed on vehicle models that require infrequent overnight rest stops

"LX" - cabins are installed on the main truck models. They are distinguished by a high roof and the presence of two beds for a night's rest

There are several ways to mount the cab. The choice of support depends on the purpose of the car, the intensity of use and other indicators. This is aboutthe following mounting types:

The cab is attached at 4 points using shock absorbers and spring-type suspension. A lever with 2 supports for tipping the cab is installed in front. The rear supports are represented by a swing arm with locks. Both front and rear are equipped with 2 shock absorbers, which, due to the presence of 5 modes, can balance vibrations and differences in weight

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