About the Thwaites 3 Tonne Dumper
The Thwaites 3 Tonne Front Tip is the highest-capacity wheeled dumper in the Manchester Diggers fleet. Carrying 3,000 kg and 1,680 litres heaped per cycle, it's built for high-volume spoil removal, bulk material movement, and groundworks where output over a full day is the priority. Same Yanmar engine and Kinglink chassis as the 2 tonne, with the larger skip and wider track to handle greater volume.
