Benford dumper

[@trevorjarvis3021]

Sounds really sweet for an old dumper! 50 years young!!

In America we call them a Georgia buggy and they're mostly used for hauling concrete !

Hi Sockets, The Engine is a Petter PH1 👍

[@calumanderson5617]

I remember seeing those being used by the council in the very early 80's where I lived.

[@SocketsNSpanners]

Hey thanks it’s a nice old machine

[@beehivesbiggles]

It's a Petter AVA1 or PH1 Engine in a Benford LEP 15Cwt Dumper, Good old machines, Still alot about. I keep many original new parts for these machines, Belts, king pins/bushes, all steering box components, engine parts, skip check chains, clutch control brackets, brake components, handbrake levers, cables, Engine parts and some gearbox parts.

Do you have a website?

[@Truerealism747]

Do you have anything nfor the Winget type

[@arniethet2920]

Hey mate, great video I’ve been offered a dumper truck the same as this but just trying to do a bit of research. Do you know how wide the wheelbases and what sort of weight this vehicle is as I need to find a trailer but I don’t wanna buy a massive Trailer, just something suitable for a small dumper

[@StevenSmith-su8fq]

Ex council so it hasn't done much work then it's no wonder it is in such good condition.

[@malthejrgensen6738]

Nice old thing. Have you considered to support the exhaust before it breaks the cylinder head?

[@dcoul1]

Sweet little dumper. I do hope the engine is being stopped the correct way, and not using the decompression lever. I always worry when I see the lever already in the upright (decompressed) position at the start of a video, which signifies to me that perhaps it was left that way from the last time the Petter was shut down!

[@SocketsNSpanners]

Oh yes, using the decompression lever

[@richiecory1966]

Hi. I have the same dumper and having a real challenge with the clutch belt which keeps braking after 20mins or so of use. Are you able to tell me where you bought your belts from? I'm in the UK. Thanks.

I have a liner roughrider 3/4 ton. 60s. Single Cylinder Petter ava1. From Gateshead. I actually live in Canterbury haha. Lovely little dumper.

[@malthejrgensen6738]

The vibrations are really resulting in some high forces on the manifold

[@shughume]

What tyres does it have? Size and type?

[@darren.hilldrup]

That exhaust is far too much weight unsupported on two small manifold bolts. Be better to put original muffler back at a lower level ?
