       is a very popular sized machine, tipping
       the  scales  between  22  and  24.5  ton

       depending on configuration. Powered by
       a HINO 4-cylinder diesel engine adhering
       to Stage V exhaust emissions, it is both
       fuel  efficient  while  providing  plenty  of

       power to get the job done.
