Ever since i got the excavator it would make a lot of sense to have a nice sand Tipper aswell. i have been scourching through the internet for a decent sand tipper for many years and also went to see some Tippers to see if they would suit me.
Eventually this trailer came up and it seemed a nice little Tipper for me as my excavator could perfectly load it and it would fit nicely in the orchards.
I had to pick up the trailer from quite a distance and i did measure our trailer and checked all the weights. This would just work with my car so i decided to pick it up with the car.
I had to put the trailer on pallets as it was way wider then the car trailer but i did manage to get it loaded perfectly and get home with it.
When i got home and unloaded it i directly wanted to try it out. First conclusion was that somebody made a bushing in the drawbar to make it fit smaller pins. i did want to connect this to the heavy connection of the 956 so i had to plasmacut this bushing out. After doing so i could get it attached to the 956 and that is a absolute golden combination.
The trailer did not come with a proper Tippergate so i decided i would weld a proper gate in there first as i just don’t like it if the gate is not functioning nicely.
After getting that all upgraded to a hydraulic gate it could start using the Tipper first to get some sand out of the garden at my house.
