s Davison and Company of Great Barbed, Bedfordshire has produced a tipper sheeti conversion called the Daviso Roll-Tarp. It can reduce sheeting-over time to 15 seconds.
Instead of a conventional oversized tarpaulin with tiedown cord, the device uses tailored sheet, anchored at the nearside, which rolls across and secures just ovei the edge of the body.
A steel roller is attached the other end of the sheet and winds within a weather deflector plate at the front o the frame_
When fully sheeted over, the roller's jointed extension and winding handle is secure across the tailgate which als, maintains cover tension. The conversion, which wi be sold in kit form, will cost about £400 and take around four hours to fit.
