Description
The Compact range of trailers is purpose-built for versatile, everyday use, featuring a fast-tipping body that reaches an impressive 55°, ensuring even stubborn or sticky loads are easily discharged.Built on a full RHS chassis with a single drawbar member, these trailers offer excellent strength and a generous turning circle for smooth manoeuvring. The hinged, removable sides and lift-off tailgate provide flexible loading options, while corner sockets in the deck secure the tailgate posts to keep the sides firmly in place when needed. This thoughtful design makes the trailer adaptable to a wide variety of tasks.
A standout feature is the removable headboard, which allows bolsters to be fitted into the four corner sockets, transforming the trailer into an efficient flatbed ideal for transporting poles. The popular mechanical auto-opening tailgate, an affordable yet highly effective option, opens automatically at 15°, with spreading chains available to control the aperture for accurate material distribution. The standard 10.0/80 x 12 10-ply wheels, measuring 250 mm wide, are perfect for applications such as golf courses. Designed for off-road use, the trailer has a maximum operating speed of 30 km/h.
