Abstract: A safety assembly for off-highway trucks. The safety assembly can include a bracket and an arm. The arm can be coupled to the bracket via a pivot pin. The arm can rotate about the pivot pin. In preparation for operation of the off-highway truck the arm can be rotated around the pivot pin and held in a first position by a positioning pin that is placed at a first position between a left plate and a right plate of the bracket. In preparation for service of the off-highway truck the arm can be rotated around the pivot pin and held in a second position by the positioning pin placed at a second position between the left plate and right of the bracket.

Abstract: A deflector attachment is adapted to surround an exhaust outlet provided in a dump body of the machine. The deflector attachment includes a plate member having a curved portion. Exhaust gases exiting the exhaust outlet are adapted to first impact the curved portion. The deflector attachment also includes a pair of side plates spaced apart by the plate member. The deflector attachment further includes an inclined deflecting plate extending between the pair of side plates. The plate member, the pair of side plates, and the inclined deflecting plate define a flow passage for smoothly diverting the exhaust gases exiting the exhaust outlet towards a central portion of the dump body.
