No Hydraulics Dump Trailer
Many New Zealand farmers use their ATV's more than they use their pickups so they're always on the lookout for ideas that make their 4-wheelers even more useful. Maurice Devane, who farms near Taihape, developed this new dump trailer that dumps it's load without the need for hydraulics.
To operate it, you just pull two pins on the tongue, put blocks behind the trailer wheels, and back up. The main part of the tongue will "telescope" inward while the top part of the hitch hinges upward, raising the bed of the trailer to dump. Once empty, you just pull ahead and the trailer comes down flat again. Devane is looking fora manufacturer for the idea.
