When it comes to moving material quickly on a construction site, dumpers can be an economical and efficient option. Ausa has introduced a new line of reversible dumpers that allow the operator to rotate the seat 180 degrees and drive forward at all times. New models include the £13,200 DR601AHG and the £22,000 DR1001AHG.
When the seat is rotated, the steering wheel, joystick, pedals, speed cameras and other functions are immediately adjusted to the driver's new position. The driver can also get in and out on both sides of the dumper. Ausa says the features increase safety and help reduce machine maneuvering.
Both models are equipped with a 74 hp Tier 4 Final Deutz engine with an automatic regeneration system and a hydrostatic transmission. An Eco Mode function controls the engine to increase fuel economy.
For added safety on slopes, the machine's Hill Holder system applies the brake when the operator's foot is removed from the accelerator pedal at zero speed.
A wide range of optional accessories is available, including a closed ROPS/FOPS cab, which can be easily removed for transport. An optional Smart Stop system automatically shuts off the engine when not in use and optimal time and safety requirements are met.
