Consolidation policy of Dash
Dash--1 series
Due to expansion of emission regulation
regulation, number of models is being increasing
increasing. It
is becoming essential to reduce the models in order to improve the every
managing efficiency. So called “Scrap and Build” of Dash-1 series.

GD511A-1 To continue production


S6D95L Since this model has strong demand as small model

GD521A-1 Consolidate to GD623A-1 based one model


6D105
Why GD623A-1 based?
GD611A-1 1.Most high performance machine with 6D125 engine
S6D105 ((able to eliminate 6D105 engine
g models))
2.Well arranged attachments options enable to cover the
GD661A-1 required specification on the other models.
