Fontaine Modification’s New International Premium Dual Drive Improves Driver Comfort for Trash Collection, Street Sweeping

NEW SIT-DOWN DUAL DRIVE MODIFICATION IS AVAILABLE FOR INTERNATIONAL MV AND HV TRUCKS

The new International Premium Dual Drive modification from Fontaine Modification Medium & Heavy Truck Operations makes it just as comfortable for a driver to operate a refuse collection vehicle, street sweeper, or road-striping truck from the right side as the left.

Fontaine’s Premium Dual Drive modification adds a right-hand drive station to International MV as well as HV trucks. This is ideal for applications that require an operator to drive from either side. It also provides significant improvements over Fontaine’s other dual drive offering, including increased legroom.

“Our engineers have worked hard to make the right-side driving position virtually identical to the ergonomics of the OEM left-side position,” explains Jamil Young, president, Fontaine Modification Medium & Heavy Truck Operations. “This helps drivers be as comfortable and productive as possible throughout their shifts.”

Fontaine performs the modification at its facility in Ohio, near the plant where International manufactures its MV and HV trucks. Further, Fontaine performs the International Premium Dual Drive modification on new vehicles as part of Fontaine’s ship-thru agreement with International. Therefore, the process is seamless and cost-effective for the customer.
