Mixing power steering fluids can accelerate oil degradation, increase mechanical wear and tear, and potentially lead to mechanical failures. Below is relevant information about power steering fluid: 1. Function: Power steering assists drivers by automatically providing steering force during turns, thereby reducing the driver's steering effort. Power steering fluid is a medium oil added to the power steering system, serving to transmit steering force and provide cushioning. 2. Replacement interval: Automobile manufacturers generally do not strictly specify the replacement cycle for power steering fluid. However, to prevent the fluid from becoming overly dirty or deteriorating, it is recommended to replace the power steering fluid every 2 years or 30,000 kilometers.

Dimensions of the Dump Truck Body for a 4x8 Axle Configuration?

The body dimensions are 1120mm, 1180mm, and 1015mm. The term '4x8 axle configuration' refers to a setup with four wheels at the front and eight wheels at the rear. Specifically, '4 at the front' means a dual-axle system with four wheels, while '8 at the rear' also indicates a dual-axle system, totaling eight driven wheels—four wheels per axle, with two wheels on each side of every axle. Below is relevant information about the truck's engine system: The engine drives the hydraulic pump via the transmission and power take-off (PTO) device. High-pressure oil flows through the control valve and pipelines into the lifting hydraulic cylinder, where the piston rod is pushed to tilt the truck body. Rearward tilting is the most common method. The movement of the piston rod can be controlled by the operating system to stop the body at any desired tilt angle. The body returns to its original position using its own weight and hydraulic control.
