Truck Brief

Overall Design and Application

The ISUZU FTR Dump Truck is purpose-built for high-intensity hauling tasks such as sand, gravel, soil, and demolition debris. With an overall size of 6970 × 2500 × 3050 mm and a 3900 mm wheelbase, the truck offers excellent stability while maintaining manageable dimensions for job sites with limited space. A gross vehicle weight of 19,300 kg and a rated payload of 11,500 kg underline its suitability for continuous heavy-duty operation.

Cab Comfort and Driving Environment

The vehicle is equipped with the VC61 4X sleeper cab, designed to support both long working hours and short-distance site operations. The cab uses a 4-point hydraulic suspension system, which helps absorb road vibrations and improves driving comfort under load.

Inside, the driver benefits from air conditioning, electric doors and windows, center locking, and a multi-functional steering wheel, all supported by a multi-functional LCD instrument panel that provides clear, real-time vehicle information. The front-tilting cab design ensures convenient access for routine inspections and maintenance, reducing downtime.

Engine and Powertrain Performance

At the core of the truck is the ISUZU 4HK1-TCG60 diesel engine, delivering 151 kW (205 HP) at 2600 rpm and a strong 647 N·m of torque at 1600 rpm. This 5.193-liter, four-cylinder engine is turbocharged and intercooled, offering consistent power output, strong low-speed torque, and dependable fuel efficiency, even under full load.

The engine is paired with the ISUZU MLD-6Q manual transmission, featuring 6 forward gears and 1 reverse, with synchronized shifting for smooth gear changes. This drivetrain combination ensures confident starts, stable hill climbing, and controlled performance in stop-and-go construction environments.

Chassis Strength and Safety Systems

The truck is built on a U-profile parallel ladder frame, cold-riveted with reinforced cross members and a double-layer body mounting structure, providing the rigidity needed for heavy tipping operations. Mechanical semi-elliptic leaf spring suspension (7/7+7) supports consistent load distribution, while the axle configuration — 6,300 kg front axle and 13,000 kg rear axle — ensures strong load-bearing capacity.

Safety is enhanced through a dual-circuit compressed air braking system, engine exhaust brake, and ABS, delivering reliable stopping power under varying load and road conditions.

Dump Body and Key Features

High-Strength Dump Body Structure

The dump truck body has a capacity of 8 CBM, with internal dimensions of 4500 × 2300 × 800 mm, making it ideal for transporting bulk materials efficiently. Constructed from Q235 carbon steel, the body features a rectangular cross-grid reinforced structure combined with additional reinforcement ribs, ensuring excellent resistance to deformation and long-term durability under repeated heavy loads.

The 5 mm thick floor plate and 4 mm side walls further enhance structural strength, extending service life in abrasive working environments.

Hydraulic Tipping System

The tipping mechanism uses a front-end hydraulic lifting cylinder, delivering smooth and stable lifting performance. With a maximum tipping angle of 45°, the truck allows fast and complete unloading of materials. Tipping operations are conveniently controlled via a lever inside the cab, enabling precise and safe operation without leaving the driver’s seat.

Tailgate and Operational Safety

The dump body is fitted with a single swing rear tailgate, designed for reliable discharge of materials. Tailgate locking mechanisms improve safety during transport, while side guards and a rear bumper enhance overall road safety and compliance during daily operation.

Durability and Exterior Protection

To withstand harsh working conditions, the dump body is treated with an electrophoretic primer coating, providing excellent corrosion resistance and long-term surface protection. Bright, long-lasting LED lights improve visibility during night operations or low-light environments, contributing to safer job site performance.
