Thwaites offers reliable and compact dumpers designed for efficient operation in construction sites with limited space. The Thwaites 1.5-ton dumper with a ±90° rotating skip is a practical and highly maneuverable solution for daily transport tasks, combining compact dimensions, stability, and high performance.

CARRYING CAPACITY AND SKIP

With a maximum allowable payload of 1500 kg, a skip volume of 800 liters, and a water volume of 520 liters, the Thwaites 1.5-ton dumper provides excellent capacity for construction, repair, and infrastructure activities.

The hydraulically controlled Power Swivel skip allows for ±90° rotation (a total of 180°), enabling precise unloading from both sides without additional maneuvering. The base of the skip is made from 4 mm steel plate, and the opening is reinforced with box profiles for added strength and durability during intensive use.

ENGINE AND PERFORMANCE

The machine is equipped with a Yanmar 3TNV76 diesel engine – water-cooled, 3-cylinder. The power of 15.9 kW / 21.4 hp at 2800 rpm and a torque of 66.4 Nm ensure reliable and economical operation with low fuel consumption.

The noise level at the operator's position is 84 LpA, while the external noise level is 101 LwA, contributing to a more comfortable working environment.

TRANSMISSION AND SPEEDS

The hydrostatic transmission with variable pump flow powers four wheel motors and includes the Twin-Lock system for maximum traction when working on uneven or slippery terrain.

The working speed ranges from 0 to 12 km/h both forward and backward, providing smooth handling and excellent control in tight spaces.

CHASSIS, STABILITY, AND SAFETY

The front and rear chassis are made from bent steel construction with articulation at the central point and oscillation for optimal stability and traction.

The automatic emergency braking system is integrated into the rear drive motors, ensuring safety under all conditions. The turning radius of 6.00 m contributes to the excellent maneuverability of the machine.

COMFORT, MAINTENANCE, AND EQUIPMENT

The operator's area features an adjustable suspension seat and a high-visibility seatbelt, as well as LED warning lights for all critical functions.

The locking engine cover provides easy access for maintenance from ground level. All electrical components are waterproof with IP67 protection.

The fuel tank has a capacity of 21 liters, while the hydraulic tank has a capacity of 20 liters.

Standard equipment includes LED beacons and a reverse alarm. Optional features include road mirrors, road lighting, a tow bar, and sand tires.

The Thwaites 1.5-ton dumper with a ±90° rotating skip is a compact, stable, and reliable solution for professional use when precision, maneuverability, and optimal operating costs are required.
