PETROL MINI DUMPER

The Max-Truck™: The Ultimate Powered Wheelbarrow for Tough Terrain

The Max-Truck™ (often referred to as the Muck-Truck® Max-Truck™) is a highly versatile and robust powered mini-dumper engineered to tackle demanding material handling tasks on construction sites, landscaping projects, agricultural settings, and more. Designed and built in the UK, it offers a powerful alternative to conventional wheelbarrows, capable of carrying significantly more weight and navigating challenging ground with ease.

Features

• 365 kg (800 lbs / 8 cu ft) Carrying Capacity: Capable of transporting loads up to 365 kg, equivalent to three times the capacity of a traditional manual wheelbarrow. This greatly increases efficiency and reduces the number of trips required.
• Powerful Honda GXV 160 Commercial 5.5hp Engine: Equipped with a reliable, commercial-grade Honda GXV 160 engine (5.5 horsepower), ensuring strong performance, durability, and a long service life, even under continuous heavy use.
• True 4-Wheel Drive Traction: Features a genuine 4-wheel drive system, providing maximum traction and stability on wet, muddy, uneven, or sloped ground. This capability allows the Max-Truck™ to climb slopes of up to 30 degrees fully loaded.
• Compact & Manoeuvrable Design: With an unladen weight of approximately 155 kg and compact dimensions (L 1600mm x W 710mm x H 915mm), the Max-Truck™ is narrow enough (710mm wide) to fit through standard doorways and garden gates, making it ideal for accessing confined spaces where larger machinery cannot go.
• Easy to Use Transmission: Features a user-friendly transmission with 3 forward gears and 1 reverse gear, allowing the operator to select the appropriate speed (up to 3.5 mph) for precise control and efficient material movement. The transmission is sealed for life, requiring no service.
• Enhanced Operator Safety & Ergonomics:
  • Excellent Balance: The machine's balanced design ensures easy tipping and reduces operator fatigue, allowing users to shift tons of materials in a day with minimal strain.
  • Precise Speed Control: Fitted with a throttle lever that allows for precise forward speed control.
  • Disc Parking Brake: A reliable disc parking brake ensures the machine stops dead when engaged, providing safety, especially when operating on inclines or during loading/unloading. It also stops immediately if the operator falls or trips, enhancing safety.
  • Low Impact on Ground: Due to its balanced weight distribution, the Max-Truck™ causes minimal impact to the ground, even when fully loaded.
• Durable Construction: All metal work is laser-cut for precise manufacturing and powder-coated for superior quality and resistance to wear and corrosion, ensuring a long operational lifespan.
• Versatile Accessories: A wide range of optional accessories are available to expand its functionality, including:
  • Flatbeds (for moving paving slabs, timber)
  • Skip extensions (for increased volume capacity)
  • Ball hitch (for towing small trailers)
  • Turf tyres (to reduce ground pressure on sensitive surfaces like lawns)
  • Snow plough attachments (for winter use)
  • Vacuum systems (for collecting leaves/debris)
• Easy to Transport: The balanced design allows the Max-Truck™ to be easily loaded into the back of a van without the need for ramps in many cases.
