The Thwaites 2 tonne, Stage V dumpers are manufactured with contractors and hirers in mind – ensuring operator safety, reducing risk on site and improving performance. Powered by either the traditional 18.1kW Yanmar engine, delivering 107 Nm max torque, or the all-new 48V Electric drive pack using four maintenance-free, long-life, lithium-ion (dry cell) batteries rated at 22kWh. The battery pack drives two highly efficient electric motors (one for traction, one for the hydraulic services) giving the operator the control and manoeuvrability expected from a Thwaites dumper.
