The HMK 600 MG Motor Grader continues to prove itself a popular model among Onetrak’s Australian clientele. Built to maximise performance in the most demanding of operating conditions, with every component carefully designed and manufactured for heavy-duty work, the Hidromek Motor Grader is made to tackleAustralian conditions.

The HMK600 MG Motor Grader’s strong articulated frame offers powerful manoeuvrability on uneven terrain. Based off the traditional Mitsubishi Grader, Hidromek have made major design improvements with the help of computer simulations and field tests, the resulting advanced frame design offers superior service life and durability for rugged environments.

Not to mention, its heavy-duty 14-foot blade makes earthmoving and grading tasks a breeze.The inbuilt clutches on the blade’s swivel system allows the blade to absorb sudden impacts and reduce the risk of damage to the blade itself. The HMK 600MG model also features two blade accumulators that improve the strength of the blade, providing ease of operation by absorbing any sudden vertical shocks. Not to mention, the kinematic blade design allows it to be positioned up to a 90-degree angle on either side of the grader for side levelling, trench digging and slope cutting.

The entire motor grader is run by the powerful Mercedes-Benz, turbo-diesel engine with variable horsepower function and complies with EUStage V emissions regulations (Tier 3 engine available). The variable horsepower of the engine assists the grader’s higher efficiency and lower fuel consumption by adapting to the power needed. Even the hydraulic cooling fan can operate at differing speeds depending on the engine’s overall temperature reducing unnecessary power consumption.  

The reason this model is so popular isn’t just about its strong components. The core of the HMK 600 MG’s design is about the operator. The unique hexagonal cab provides unmatched field of vision, allowing the driver to have a good view of the blade while in operation. The grader also incorporates advanced features like electro-hydraulic controls, advanced joystick steering, anda comfortable, spacious ROPS/FOPS-certified cabin. The driver can fully control the grader through the versatile joystick controls or make use of the steering wheel if needed. With 8 forward and 8 reverse gears, there is full control over the HMK600 MG’s speed and manoeuvrability.

These unique cabin features proved key to the HMK 600 MG Motor Grader winning the prestigious reddot award in 2017. The jury stated: “This powerful motor grader provides simple, intuitive steering by joystick and gains merit also with a cabin design which focuses on function and safety aspects.” The model has also gained recognition through the Good Design Awards and with a Special Mention at the German Design Awards. The popularity of this model among Onetrak’s customers shows the operator-focused design continues to meet the demands of drivers across Australia.  

Overall, the Hidromek HMK 600 MG Motor Grader is designed inside and out for the operator. With safety and comfort being key to the overall cabin design, alongside heavy-duty components and a strong, articulating frame, thisMotor Grader is well suited to Australian conditions.
