Spare parts catalogues. Brand 'FAW'. Model 'CA3250 (6x4) J6'

FAW J6 CA 3250 is a large-capacity universal-purpose dump truck with a 6x4 wheel arrangement. This model can be used in almost all modern fields of activity. But most often the truck is used to perform work in the city and on construction sites. For consumers, the FAW J6 CA 3250 is offered in several modifications, differing mainly in the length of the wheelbase.

This Chinese manufacturer is quite famous not only in China, but also far beyond its borders. For the Russian market, the FAW J6 CA 3250 truck model was offered in 2007. Over all this time, the Chinese dump truck has managed to occupy its niche and even compete with domestic KamAZ brand vehicles.

In 2013, the manufacturer presented its new model, which is an update of the first three-axle truck FAW J6 CA 3250. The restyled dump truck has a very stylish design, a streamlined cab, slanted headlights typical of Chinese cars and many other improvements. As for technical and operational characteristics, they are at a fairly high level.

Modifications

The manufacturer assigned the standard version of the truck the factory index P66K2T1E4. This version has a wheelbase length of 4300 millimeters and a total overall length of 8890 millimeters.

The short-wheelbase modification is produced under the factory designation A P64K1T1E4. Here the wheelbase length is already 3300 millimeters, and the total overall length reaches 7470 millimeters.

Due to their different overall dimensions, both models presented are equipped with different cargo platforms.

• The P66K2T1E4 version has a cargo platform designed for a volume of 19.3 cubic meters. Its overall dimensions have the following values: 6000 x 2300 x 1400 mm.
• The second modification A P64K1T1E4 is equipped with a body that can accommodate up to 12 cubic meters of cargo. Dimensions of this platform: 4800 x 2300 x 1100 mm.

The modification with the index P66K2T1E4 has a maximum permitted weight of 35,100 kilograms, while the short-wheelbase version A P64K1T1E4 has a maximum weight of 25,700 kilograms.

Another distinctive feature in these modifications is the installed engines:

The manufacturer equipped the main version with a six-cylinder in-line diesel power plant of the CA6DL2–37E4 brand, having a displacement of 8.6 liters and a maximum output power of 370 horsepower. The maximum torque reaches 1550 Newton meters at 1300-1500 rpm.

The shorter version of the truck has a six-cylinder in-line diesel engine of the BF6M1013-2 brand under the hood, the displacement of which is 7.1 liters. The maximum output power reaches 280 horsepower, and the peak torque is 1050 Newton meters.

Appearance

The FAW J6 CA 3250 truck has a modern and very attractive appearance. But some features of the cabin reveal the manufacturer's Asian roots.

The front part has a futuristic look, which is given by a sculpted cabin with air compartments, narrow halogen optics in the bumper with electrical adjustment, rectangular fog lights and a dotted radiator grille. It is all this together that makes it clear that this dump truck comes from Asia.

The manufacturer's triple logo is printed on the side of the cabin. The wheel arches have slight extensions. There are small stampings on the doors, grip handles and an area near the steps.

The upper part of the windshield is slightly covered by a special visor that protects the driver and passengers from the sun's rays. The rear wall of the cabin is equipped with a hanging spare wheel, and behind it there is a cargo platform. It is worth noting that in versions with a short wheelbase the volume of the platform is 12 cubic meters, while on the extended versions a platform with a volume of 19.3 cubic meters is installed.

Cabin

Access to the cabin is provided by three steps and handrails installed on each side.

The entire cabin structure is mounted to the frame using four shock absorbers. Compared to other Chinese models, the FAW J6 CA 3250 has a more spacious interior. There are two seats, and in versions with an extended wheelbase the cabin is equipped with a sleeping bag.

In order to ensure increased comfort during work, the driver's seat was equipped with air suspension and many adjustments, albeit mechanical. The driving position was generally quite comfortable. The ergonomics of the cabin are also very well thought out. On the right side of the driver, there is a gear lever, a handbrake, and a control unit for the platform's dumping mechanism.

Chinese roots can be traced in this model not only in design, but also in the interior. The plastic used inside is of average quality, and the assembly is not of the best quality. This is a kind of calling card of almost all Chinese cars.

The truck's controls are represented by a four-spoke steering wheel with a massive brand logo. The dashboard contains only classic dial gauges and a very simple on-board computer.

The dashboard panel is painted in two colors. In the center there are also classic control buttons with various electrical equipment, a standard radio with a USB port, and a small display with climate control settings. In addition, the cabin has electric windows. The panel does not have any shelves or niches for storing personal belongings and documents, which is very unusual. Between the seats there is a high tunnel covering the power plant. Due to its rather large size, it prevents movement towards the sleeping bag.

Compared to other Chinese-made trucks, the FAW J6 CA 3250 model has very good noise insulation.

Working moments

The rear window in the cabin wall attracts attention; this suggests that the machine is designed to work with frequent changes of rolling stock and transport construction and industrial equipment, when visibility from the rear-view mirrors is not enough.

The crowded instrument cluster with a monochrome display of the Chinese-language on-board computer is illuminated in a pleasant green color; there is no shortage of data: instant and average fuel consumption, oil pressure, on-board network voltage. The speedometer, tachometer, fuel and urea level indicators are easy to read, and the combined control pressure gauge for the pneumatic system is generally mechanical - archaic, but reliable.

Instrument panel and information displayed on the on-board computer display

The steering column has two adjustments, the pneumatic seat is quite comfortable, the side windows are raised by an electric drive, and four rows of large keys with clear icons on the front panel seem to say - you won’t miss! There is also a “parachute” crane on the center console between the seats - a controversial thing, but never superfluous.

Loading platform

The FAW J6 CA 3250 truck is equipped with a metal dump platform with a wall thickness of 6 millimeters and a bottom thickness of 8 millimeters.

There is enough free space between the frame and the body itself. The manufacturer has implemented heating of the platform here using exhaust gases, which accumulate in this space. Thanks to this, any bulk cargo does not freeze to the platform, which is very convenient in winter conditions. The lifting mechanism includes a Hyva brand hydraulic cylinder, which lifts the body by 52 degrees, which is quite enough.

As described earlier, this model is available in two versions, namely the long wheelbase P66K2T1E4 and the short wheelbase A P64K1T1E4.

For the first option, an enlarged body is used. Its length is 6000, width 2300, and height 1400 millimeters. With such dimensions, the body can accommodate up to 19.3 cubic meters of cargo.

The second option is equipped with a reduced cargo platform, having a length of 4800, a width of 2300 and a height of 1100 millimeters. The volume of such a body is 12 cubic meters.

Specifications

Engine

The truck is equipped with one of two power units, depending on the modification.

Thus, the extended version is equipped with a six-cylinder in-line diesel power plant of the CA6DL2–37E4 brand. The engine has a turbocharging system and a displacement of 8.6 liters. Its maximum output power reaches 370 horsepower. The maximum torque is 1550 Newton meters and is available in the range from 1300 to 1500 rpm.

For the short-wheelbase modification, the manufacturer also chose a six-cylinder in-line diesel engine, but this time of the BF6M1013-2 brand. This option has a displacement of 7.1 liters and a maximum output power of 280 horsepower. Its maximum torque is 1050 newton meters and is also achieved in the range from 1300 to 1500 rpm.

Both power plants are equipped with modern electronic control systems and fuel equipment from Bosch. As for environmental friendliness, they comply with Euro-4 requirements.

checkpoint

Depending on the installed engine, the FAW J6 CA 3250 model is equipped with different gearbox options.

The 370-horsepower engine can be paired with either a ten-speed manual transmission of the CA10TA160 brand, or a twelve-speed manual gearbox of the 12 JSD160T brand. Both options are unsynchronized.

For the 280-horsepower unit, a mechanical ten-speed gearbox of the CA10TA130M brand or a nine-speed synchronized gearbox of the JS135T brand is offered.

Brake system

This dump truck is equipped with a dual-circuit pneumatic braking system with ABS. The manufacturer installed classic drum brakes on each wheel.

Chassis

The model has a 6x4 wheel arrangement. A dependent suspension was used at the front and rear, consisting of longitudinally located semi-elliptical leaf springs. In addition to this, bi-directional hydraulic telescopic shock absorbers are installed on the front suspension. It is worth noting that the truck’s suspension is characterized by increased reliability and resistance to overloads, which has been repeatedly confirmed in practice.

Detailed instructions for operation, repair, setup of dump trucks used in SHAANXI (SHACMAN). Article from the official SHACMAN dealer AK BOLSHEGRUZ LLC. This instruction will be useful to anyone who is planning to prepare for seasonal operation of their Shakman/Foton dump truck. It is also useful for owners of dump trucks of the Dongfeng and FAW, HOWO brands, since the dump trucks on them are almost identical, with the exception of some controls in the cab and a raised body alarm.

Peculiarities

The FAW J6 CA 3250 truck is a really good dump truck compared to other competing Chinese-made models. Although it, like any other similar technology, has various disadvantages, it has quite good quality, which is why the car is loved by Russian companies. The popularity of this truck on the Russian market is mainly due to the fairly high level of comfort and convenience for the driver.

Road irregularities are smoothed out by the cabin suspension, represented by four shock absorbers and a driver's seat equipped with air suspension. The cabin can accommodate up to two people. The extended version is also equipped with a very comfortable sleeping bag located immediately behind the seats. The seating position is very comfortable from both the driver's and passenger's seats. Thanks to the large glass area and large rear-view mirrors, which are also very well located, it was possible to achieve excellent visibility and significantly minimize blind spots.

It is worth noting that the driver’s seat, in addition to the air suspension, has many adjustments, which allows you to choose the most comfortable position depending on the driver’s configuration. Another plus is the well-thought-out ergonomics.

The standard configuration of the dump truck includes the following equipment:

1. Electric windows;
2. Pneumatic suspension of the driver's seat;
3. Two batteries;
4. Radio tape recorder with USB port and radio;
5. Head optics with electrical adjustment;
6. Climate control;
7. Cabin filter.

Metal was used in the construction of the cargo platform. The thickness of all walls is 6 millimeters, when the bottom of the body is 8 millimeters wide.

This model also has heating of the bottom of the platform. Like other dump trucks, the body is heated by exhaust gases. The manufacturer used for this purpose the free space between the body and the frame, where exhaust gases accumulate. A special mechanism equipped with a Hyva brand hydraulic cylinder, capable of raising the body by 52 degrees, is responsible for raising the platform.

On the first models of the truck, torque was transmitted to the rear wheels via a double cardan with an outboard bearing. But in Russian operating conditions, such a solution turned out to be unreliable. As the owners note, the bearing often broke off. The manufacturer listened to this and later began equipping all its trucks with simple straight driveshafts without any bearings.

Among the main disadvantages, poor corrosion resistance should be highlighted. Reviews mention that the metal elements of the truck begin to rust after only 3 years of operation. To a large extent, this problem is a consequence of poor paintwork.

Another disadvantage, which mainly affects convenience, is the central tunnel that hides the engine. Since it is quite large, access to the sleeping bag is a little difficult.

Review of FAW CA3250 dump truck 6x4

Chinese 6x4 dump truck FAW CA 3250 with J6 cab.

The equipment of the Chinese FAW plant has successfully filled the niche of heavy-duty equipment in the Russian markets since 2007, gradually displacing domestic ones. the FAW CA3250 three-axle dump truck, we will find out how high-tonnage equipment from China differs.

• Model: FAW CA3250
• Wheel formula: 6X4
• Total weight: 35.1 tons
• Cost: 4,880,000 rubles
• Start of sales: 2013

A brief excursion into history

First Automobile Works ( FAW ) is China's oldest automobile manufacturing enterprise, formerly known as No. 1 Automobile Factory, founded in 1953. The first car released from the plant's assembly line, with the help of engineers from the Soviet Union, was the ZiS-150 truck. Today, FAW is a leader in the automotive market of its country and is a powerful corporation that unites several other enterprises.

FAW is one of the first automotive companies to open its representative office in the Russian Federation back in 2007. The representative office was named “ FAV – Eastern Europe ”. His goal was to promote this brand of cars on the Russian market.

First meeting

The FAW CA3250 dump truck is presented as an object for review . The design of the dump truck is quite modern. Its Asian roots are evidenced by the slightly sloping shape of the cabin, the slanted headlights of the truck and, in fact, the body itself with a volume of 19.3 cubic meters (this volume is typical for Chinese designs). The front bumper is a composite one, so if it gets damaged it won't need to be repaired completely. There is no traditional bumper protection, but underneath there is an underride guard that holds the equipment, thereby protecting the engine. How correct this decision is will be clear during the operation of the dump truck.

Detailed review of the dump truck

A well-designed cabin of the new generation J6 is the main advantage of the dump truck. To get into the cabin, you just need to climb 3 steps, one of which is suspended, but very durable. Handrails are also provided. The cabin has a four-point mechanical suspension with two shock absorbers in the front. The cabin is not cramped, spacious, the space for sleeping and relaxing is quite large. A comfortable driver's seat with air suspension, adjustable in ways typical for this type of suspension. The diameter of the steering wheel is optimal for the driver's grip. The upholstery material is high quality and quite soft. The gear lever is located in a convenient place for the driver, and thanks to its shape, it fits easily in the hand. Near the gearbox lever there is a handbrake and a dump truck platform control lever.

The front panel is assembled with high quality, two colors predominate, and there are no wooden inserts. The plastic is of high quality, there are no gaps or cracks between the panels, and there are no foreign odors in the cabin. The disadvantage is the rather high location of the engine tunnel, which makes access to the sleeping compartment and passenger seat difficult, but does not limit the working space of the truck driver. Numerous drawers in the cabin and glove compartments are missing (another characteristic feature of Chinese car manufacturers). Small items can only be stored in the folding glove box located on the front panel inside the cabin. The sleeping compartment is quite wide and has two side windows. The upholstery of the sleeping compartment and the curtains over the windows are made of high-quality fabric that is pleasant to the touch.

The truck is equipped with an aluminum fuel tank with a lid. It is locked with a special key. The volume of the fuel tank is four hundred liters. The dump truck frame is made of high-strength steel, welded according to the “spar-in-spar” principle. The structure of the frame, the presence of various locks (inter-wheel, inter-axle) and cabin heating indicate that the truck can operate in harsh conditions. There is a small tool box located on the right side of the cab.

The FAW plant responded to the malfunction of the bearings, namely their breakage, and equipped these types of three-axle dump trucks with a straight cardan without an outboard bearing.

The dump truck has a CA6DL2-37E4 . It includes a six-cylinder turbodiesel with a displacement of 8.6 liters and a power of 375 horsepower. Engine with twelve-speed manual synchronized gearbox. The motor complies with the Euro 4 standard with SRC technology, which uses urea, which allows it to comply with environmental standards. The process of turning off urea has already been worked out by dealers and can significantly reduce the cost of owning a dump truck.

The dump truck has both dependent suspensions. The front is equipped with semi-elliptical springs and hydraulic shock absorbers. The rear suspension is balanced with longitudinal semi-elliptical springs. The dump truck brake system is pneumatic with two circuits. The first circuit is connected to the front axle, and the second to the rear bogie.

the FAW CA3250 dump truck is 19 tons. The volume of the car body is slightly more than 19 cubic meters. The bottom of the dump truck is made of eight-millimeter metal sheets, the sides are made of six-millimeter metal sheets. The dimensions of the body allow you to increase the sides and increase the volume of transported cargo. The body is heated using engine exhaust gases. The body rises to an angle of 52 degrees, thanks to Hyva brand hydraulics, namely a hydraulic cylinder. The spare wheel is mounted on the front of the dump truck body. To get inside the body, a ladder is provided, which is located on the right side.

Compared to other heavy-duty Chinese-made equipment, the cabin of this dump truck has good sound insulation. When operating the unit, slight vibrations are felt. Rear view mirrors and a large windshield will help you control the situation in front of and around the dump truck. The presence of climate control in the cabin, a radio with a USB connector and the presence of electric windows are pleasant little things that you can encounter while driving the FAW CA3250 dump truck.

After the review, we can conclude that the FAW CA3250 dump truck is a worthy product on the heavy-duty equipment market. The cars of this Chinese company began to fill the niche back in 2007 and continue to fill it to this day, but with more modern, new-generation equipment. FAW adequately responds to comments from operators and corrects identified deficiencies.
