Ski lifts in summer? What the Mercedes-Benz Arocs has to do with it.

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.

Working at height is the job of Antoine Apertet and his Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3351. Together they do a rather rare job: installing and maintaining ski lifts... in summer. After all, they have to run during winter. COMAG, based in Albertville, is known for its specialization in rope transport systems, especially ski lifts and cable cars.

For the repair of the lifts Antoine and his Arocs were on the slopes of the famous holiday town of Tignes in Savoy – more precisely at a height of 2,726 meters. The task was to remove the base of a lift station before the opening of the winter season. No problem for the truck: the load is light, but the access to the terrain was made more difficult due to heavy rainfall, which has made the terrain very slippery: Antoine Apertet equipped the Arocs with chains for this occasion. The 6x6 Arocs 3351 is ideally prepared to master its challenging tasks.

Among other things with a turbo retarder clutch (TRK). This enables both sensitive and wear-free moving off and maneuvering at the lowest speeds. The system makes full use of the available engine torque and delivers the necessary pulling power up to the traction limit – even on adventurous uphill gradients.

The heart of the truck is the OM 471 engine with a displacement of 12.8 liters, 375 kW/510 hp. The 6X6 all-wheel drive ensures the best off-road capability in the difficult and steep terrain at an altitude of more than 2,700 meters.
