ATV Dump Trailer Handles Up To 1-Ton Loads
"Our new heavy-duty ATV dump trailer is designed to haul up to 1 ton of rocks behind an ATV. It mounts on big 15-in. wheels that follow in the ATV's wheel tracks, making it easy to pull it even on soft ground," says Bennett Zierke, Lamplight Mfg., Hancock, Minn.
The trailer's box measures 30 in. wide by 40 in. long by 16 in. high and is made from 11-ga. steel. The box mounts on a frame made from 3/16-in. tubing and comes with a spring-loaded latch. When released, the box manually tilts overcenter. An air dump model, which uses a 12-volt air compressor to operate an air bag, is also available.
"It's built heavier than any other rock trailer on the market. With the big wheels following in the ATV's wheel tracks, even most 300 or 400 cc ATV's can easily pull it," says Zierke. "It works a lot better than trying to put rocks on a 4-wheeler's racks and then having them fall off. In fact, it almost makes rock picking fun for kids."
The trailer can be used in growing crops, says Zierke. "The wheelbase on most ATV's is 47 in., which means the ATV and trailer's wheels will straddle 20 and 22-in. rows. In 30-in. rows the wheels straddle one row."
The trailer can also be pulled behind any utility vehicle. "By flipping the trailer's wheels in the opposite direction, the wheels will track behind the utility vehicle's wheels," notes Zierke.
The manual dump model sells for $975 plus S&H; the air dump model for $1,500 plus S&H.
