Is 44 degrees enough for tipping angle?

[Andrew Barrett]

Hi all,

 

I'm thinking about buying one of these with an Arb body:

 

Isuzu D-Max Tipper | Roger Young

 

but I'm wondering if 44 degrees tipping angle is enough?

 

Thanks, Andrew.

wet chip might stick a bit in the corners and up the front, but just needs a jiggle to get it moving.

Wet chip might get stuck in the corners . Everything else should be fine .

 

must be an echo in here !

if it does get stuck lay a bit of rope into the corners in a u shape if it gets stuck pull it hey presto its all on top of you

What an interesting table . Or am I just sad?

 

Has anyone measured the angles for chip and logs?

When I was assessing went to farm

He was feeding sugar waste to cows to get butterfat content up ( some grant thing )

He'd bought 40 tonne lorry full of condemmed turkish delight

It was very hot and ddn't tip

When nearly vertical whole lot went over sideways

 

Never seen so many wasps

The wasps can have all of them for me. Yucky stuff.

 

I like the rope in the corner idea. You could have short lengths of chain hanging to floor from front pillars then a rope in a Y from the chains across the floor of the bed and 8ft of surplus at the tailgate end to pull at or tie to something and pull forward. The times I've climbed 45 degree woodchip in a tractor trailer to boot it down!

Sorry to laugh at another's misfortune, but that's hilarious!

Maybe there's a market for Teflon tippers?
