In addition to the three-point mounting system for cab, engine and transmission, the heavy-duty frame also has a double three-point mounting for torsion-free and stress-free mounting of bodies. They are located at specifically-defined positions which are optimally suited for the introduction of thrust, tension and weight forces. The three-point mounting de-couples cab from body. This enables the vehicle to remain torsionally flexible and fully operational at all times, even in extreme terrain.

Where the highest requirements for people and technology meet the most difficult terrain, the Mercedes-Benz Unimog is used. As diverse and individual as the job in hand requires. For this reason, the attachments and bodies have been coordinated in close cooperation with the body and equipment manufacturers for decades. This means that you can be sure that you always get the optimum solution for your vehicle or the special operation.

The Unimog U 4000/U 5000 features a power take-off for using conventional hydraulic pumps on cranes or excavators as well as a fast power take-off for connecting fire engine pumps and similar assemblies.

The powerful hydraulics with two hydraulic connections at the front and back (pressure and return line) enables an oil engine or an external control, e.g. for a cable winch or crane to be driven with an operating pressure of up to 240 bar. As a result, it is equally suitable for use with continuous consumers as for positioning movements via valves on the equipment. Standardised plug connectors facilitate fast connection without mix ups.
