1. General information
The Tipping Shovel makes light work of trans-
porting gravel, sand or mould and saves the
operator many lifts during the working day. 100
kg is easily transported from one place to anoth-
er - even on the narrowest paths.
The hydraulic tipping function is easy to work
with and perfect when, for example, the load
has to be tipped over an obstacle such as
sandpit edges or low hedges.
And now the load can be spread even while tip-
ping. The layer is levelled with the shovel edge,
giving a finished result.
The Tipping Shovel is a robust steel construction
which can perform many tasks other than shov-
elling, such as scraping grass edges of paths
with firm surfaces.
