Thwaites 1-ton dumper with rotating +/-90° tipping bucket
Thwaites offers reliable and compact dumpers designed for efficient operation on construction sites with limited space. The Thwaites 1-ton dumper with a ±90° rotating bucket is an extremely flexible and maneuverable solution for daily transport tasks, combining compact dimensions, stability, and high durability.
LOAD CAPACITY AND SKIP
With a maximum allowable payload of 1000 kg, a skip volume of 585 liters, and a water volume of 355 liters, the Thwaites 1-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 the need for 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, economical, and sustainable operation with low fuel consumption.
The noise level at the operator 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. The turning radius of 5.55 m ensures excellent maneuverability 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, providing optimal stability and traction when working on uneven terrain.
The automatic emergency braking system is integrated into the rear drive motors, ensuring secure control and safety under all working conditions.
COMFORT, SERVICE, AND EQUIPMENT
The operator's area features an adjustable seat with suspension and a high-visibility seatbelt, as well as LED indicators for all critical functions.
The locking engine cover provides easy access to service points from ground level, facilitating daily maintenance. All electrical components are protected to IP67 standard.
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-ton dumper with a ±90° rotating skip is a compact, stable, and reliable solution for professional use when flexibility, safety, and optimal operating costs are required.
