6–8 Ton Heavy-Duty Diesel Site Dumper

Overview

The heavy end of our site dumpers

This model is for work where lighter dumpers are overloaded daily. It has a rated load of 6,000 kg and a machine weight of 6,200 kg. The series covers the 6 to 8 t class, so a buyer needing more payload can discuss an 8 t build. It uses a diesel engine with a gearbox and a hydraulic tipping body.

What we can and cannot say yet

Rated load and machine weight are as listed. Engine power, body volume, dimensions and tire size are fixed per order and listed on the specification sheet that comes with the quotation.

Compared with the other dumpers

Our 6 t forward-tilt model is lighter, has an enclosed cabin and a stated 76 kW engine. This heavy-duty dumper is for buyers who want the 6 to 8 t class for tunnels and mines where the extra payload cuts the number of trips. If your tunnel has limited height, ask for our underground dumper with a low body instead.

Choosing a configuration

Payload class, body shape, cabin or canopy, tires and engine specification are matched to your market, your haul road conditions and the material you move.

Where the heavy-duty dumper stands

At 6,000 kg rated load and 6,200 kg machine weight, this is the heaviest dumper in our group by rated load, and the options up to the 8 t class sit above our 6 ton forward-tilt model. Its simple diesel hydraulic design suits tunnel, mining and construction hauling where reliability and ease of repair are more important than comfort. Compared with our 5 ton dumper with loader and cab, it has no self-loading feature, so you need an excavator or wheel loader to fill it. Compared with our 5 ton underground dumper, it is taller and wider. Choose it for open work with large machines. Axle and tire load rise with payload, so haul roads should be graded and drained to protect them.
