Arbor Trolley, Testing capacity!!!

Recommended Posts

We needed to get the butt out of this cherry today in one across the garden and then into the back of the truck to take home for a little project.

 

We reckon it was about 300kg (ish), got the balance on the trolley about right and used the winch off the nissan to drive it up the alley ramps. These ramps are rated to 750kg but they did bend a little!!!

The trolley handled it with no probs, it left no marks on the garden although the tyres were a little squashed, maybe a bit more air next time!

Simple, and adaptable.

 

Love the first photo- you sure there were no ruts in the lawn - maybe a dual wheel option a consideration. :thumbup:

 

also like the ramps into the back of the tipper - a case of "I'll operate the winch safely from back here, you stand between the ramps and guide it in" eh? :sneaky2:

Great pictures Theocus, nice to see you are getting the full benefit of the trolley and proving its rightful place in any arborist arsnel of tools :thumbup1:. For those who would like to see the Arbor-Trolley in its flesh as they say there will be a couple of them on display at Capel Manor this weekend.
