ME500 Crawler Dumper, 500 kg Payload, 0.2 cbm Hopper, Rubber Tracks

The ME500 is a tracked site dumper for narrow sites, orchards, greenhouses and interior clearance where a wheeled dumper cannot get in or would rut the ground. A 700 mm chassis and 1570 mm overall length let it pass between rows and through a standard doorway, and rubber tracks spread the load so it keeps moving over soft soil, sand and finished paving.

Where it fits

The hopper takes 200 litres with a 500 kg payload, and the 1050 x 730 x 730 mm cargo box tips to 100 degrees, which empties sand, gravel, spoil and feed cleanly. Travel speed is 2.88 km/h and the minimum turning radius is 1150 mm, so the machine turns inside a bay instead of reversing out. Gradeability is 20 degrees, enough for site ramps and orchard rows. The 46 grade hydraulic oil runs from a 15 L tank, and the 3.1 L fuel tank keeps the day short on refuelling stops.
