" Oaf has recently provided two Yorkshire operators with contrasting versions of its 851F. The 51m-wheelbase eight-wheeler run by glass recycler Berryman is powered by a 340hp 12.6-litre engine driving through a ZF 8S-151 eight-speed synchromesh gearbox. It is used to carry 35yd3 bodies which are picked up by Multihft Rollonoff winch gear and operates within a 150-mile radius of its
South Kirkby base.
Just down the road in Barnsley. Highway Recovery's 850F is a 430hp 6x4 with a 16-speed ZF box. Its Dyson Commander Maxi-reach underlift gear can lift up to 21,000kg, or 8,000kg at its full 4.3m reach. A pair of 13,500kg multi-directional winches take care of off-road recovery jobs while the sleeper cab provides accommodation for its pan-European operation.
