Key Features of Shacman M3000 Dump Truck
Light weight but Durable
Compared to the heavy-duty Shacman F3000, the Shacman M3000 has a lower weight structural setup that reduces tare weight and maximizes fuel economy without compromising on the strong dump body and reinforced frame for durability.
Reliable Performance in Global Markets
The Shacman M3000 enjoys positive export prospects. The Shacman M3000 green body is particularly popular in the Dominican Republic, where contractors find its combination of rugged mechanics and striking appearance attractive.
Practical and Comfortable Cabin
Ergonomic driver arrangement, flexible seating, easy-to-read instrumentation, and effective climate control come together to make the M3000 comfortable for long shifts and diverse operating conditions.
Cost-Effective Operations
Low maintenance intervals, great parts support, and refined engine calibrations reduce total cost of ownership (TCO), and the M3000 is an excellent choice for low-cost fleets.
