Innovations Overall vehicle Power hydraulics (circuit III and IV) The power hydraulics allow rotating consumers to be powe- red (e.g. cutting roller, wood chipper etc.). Both circuits are designed as open circuits with a maximum pressure of 280 bar. Code HL4 includes one circuit while code HL5 includes two power hydraulics circuits. The power hydraulics are located in the platform intermedi- ate frame and can be removed if necessary (e.g. for winter service operations). They are powered by a propeller shaft on the engine power take-off, code N05. The hydraulic couplings are located at the vehicle rear above the end crossmember.
Front hydraulic connections are also optionally available, eit- her for one circuit or for both circuits. Modified suspension The capabilities of the suspension have been retained in their entirety and continue to underline the advantages of the Uni- mog concept. • Weight optimization measures:
Cutouts in the frame, use of high-strength steels, greater proportion of light alloys and plastics • The portal axles have also been reinforced which means that the permissible gross vehicle weight is above the previous level • The additional major assembly weight has been overcom- pensated for with additional components • Pneumatic disk brakes on model series U2xx/U3xx System concept of new hydrostatic drive G34: The new hydrostatic drive system: code G34 combines a modified hydrostatic drive major assembly concept with the cruise control operating and control concept.
The previous hydrostatic drive system (code G33) has now been superse- ded with the launch of the new BlueTec 6 Unimog implement carrier. The new hydrostatic drive (code G34) allows fully hy- drostatic driving at up to 50 km/h and, in combination with EAS, also allows mixed hydrostatic/transmission-powered driving and can be controlled with the normal driving controls (accelerator pedal, brake, gear selector lever, steering wheel cruise control buttons). In addition, the gearshifting, cruise control and travel direction functions are supported by a left additional control lever (code DG1).
The vehicle can also be accelerated and decelerated via the hydraulic joystick in "dri- ving joystick active" mode. Standardized mounting points On the current Euro V model series of the Unimog implement carrier, mounting points were defined which have proven ef- fective across all areas of usage. The new Unimog generation will continue to use these standardized interfaces and dimen- sions. This applies to the front mounting plate, front power take-off, the ball mounting points on the platform and the mounting brackets at the rear end.
Improved ergonomics • Steering column with adjustable height and inclination (not on vehicles with transferable steering) • Reduced steering wheel control force and steering capa- bility at standstill • Multifunction steering wheel • Improved cab steps • Transmission control via right multifunction control lever • EQR operation on hydraulics joystick • Engine speed adjustment function • Driving and function controls within primary (400 mm - 600 mm) area of reach of driver • Modular positioning of hydraulics joystick • Hydraulics joystick within optimal reach area • Improved accessibility of switches of center console 11 Introduction of the New Unimog Generation | Model Series 405 – This printout will not be recorded by the update service.
