1. How easy is it to steer a loaded muck-truck®Just ease the handles off the ground and the weight distribution does the rest. It is as easy to steer fully loaded as it is to steer when it's empty.

2. How do I tip a loaded muck-truck®? Release the bucketlock lever with the right hand and slightly raise both handles. The skip will pivot and dump the load.

3. When tipped, does the front of a loaded
muck-truck® hit the ground? No. The bucket tips over the center so there's a good clearance for your load to tip cleanly out of the bucket.

2½ wheelbarrow loads, ¼ ton (551 lbs) sand or cement etc, 120 loose bricks, 25 x 3 ft rolls of turf.

5. Can I tip into the bucket with my standard sized cement mixer?
Yes provided it is fitted onto a frame.

6. How easy is it to maintain?
The transmission is a sealed unit and requires no attention other than periodic brake adjustment. All engine adjustments, including replacing the air filter and spark plug, are readily accessible without removing covers. To change the drive belt takes less than 5 minutes with no specialist tools required.


7. How readily available are spare parts? Any order phoned or faxed before 11.00am can be delivered the next working day. If you provide us with a zip code spares can even be delivered to a working site.
