Truck and Trailer Guide

A concrete cutting company located in western United States needed a hydraulic dump trailer, but not just an ordinary dump; it needed one that had a stationary platform in front of the dump box to accommodate its MT52 mini track loader. Working together with Felling Trailers, the FT-10 DT HD-SP was created.

The trailer consists of an 8 ft. (2.4 m) hydraulic dump box with a 42 in. wide by 96 in. (107 by 244 cm) long stationary platform in front of the dump box with a total deck length of 12 ft. (3.6 m).

The stationary platform is flush with the frame on the outer sides of the trailer to comfortably fit the mini track loader along with its attachments and has a ramp lock in place at a 90 degree angle. The ramp is a 48 in. long by 42 in. (122 by 107 cm) wide flip-up ramp, which is reinforced under the track footprint for loading with spring assist to provide ease and safety in raising and lowering of the ramp.
