• Multicar is offering at least 15% off its short-wheelbase four-wheel-drive models, supplied with Gmeiner gritter and front-mounted snow plough.
Specification includes a threeway tipper body and factory-fitted hydraulics, which would enable it to be used for other work such as sweeping or grass cutting.
Power comes from iveco's Euro-2 2.8-litre direct-injection turbo-diesel producing 102hp (76kW) at 3,600rpm and 1771b1t (240Nm) of torque at 1,800rpm. Drive is transmitted through a five-speed gearbox with two speed transfer case providing 10 forward and two reverse gears. A rear-axle diff lock is standard. The front-mounted hydraulic system is a one-man operation quick change unit.
The gritter body uses a spiral drive unit with adjustable spread up to 1.6 metres and comes with an audible and visual level warning. Demount support legs are also included.
The 2.0m-wide snowplough blade has a high-density polyurethane rubbing strip.
It can clear a 1.7-metre strip at 30". The blade can be changed for other equipment, while the rear will take further attachments and other demountable bodies.
