STANDARD haulage tractive units of up to 3g tonnes GCW can be converted for tipping operation by using Telehoist Motip equipment.
A standard kit priced at 0,235 plus VAT comprises power take-off and a ninecylinder axial piston pump which produces 731it/min at 1,00Orprn.
It has a pneumatically-actuated hydraulic control valve fitted on the side of the 159 litre (35gal) 255mm wide tank mounted behind the cab.
1n-cab control of the system is by a single lever that incorporates speed control with automatic PT-0 engage and disengagement.
Telehoist's heavy-duty version costs 0,443 plus VAT, has a similar specification, but uses a close-coupled gear pump capable of 114 lit/min.
Because of the increased flow rate, return line filtration is added with the filter unit mounted in the top of the oil tank.
The standard kit is offered (less tank) for 1:1,025 for operators who prefer to fit a specially-shaped one. Hoses and quick-release couplings arc supplied.
