The FY15 is a 1.5 ton mini dumper on the same 1,500 mm wide frame as our 1-ton FC10. It is aimed at orchards, livestock farms, nurseries and small contractors who move heavier material such as wet soil, manure or aggregate, and want fewer trips without stepping up to a larger site dumper.
The FY15 weighs 830 kg, only 30 kg more than the FC10, yet carries 500 kg more per trip. Its 0.8 m³ hopper is the same size as the FC10’s. A ZS1105 engine rated 13.2 kW drives two wheels (4×2) at up to 22 km/h. It shares the FC10’s 2,600 × 1,500 × 1,450 mm dimensions, 1,500 mm wheelbase and 12 V electrical system, so the two have the same footprint.
Next up the range is the FY20-2 2 ton mini dumper, rated for 2,000 kg. If your loads stay under 1,000 kg, the FC10 is 30 kg lighter.
