Description
The Forestwest BM11098 500kg Electric Mini Dumper is a high-capacity battery-powered material transporter designed for commercial landscaping, construction, farming and property maintenance.
Powered by a 48V 1000W brushless DC motor and 48V 32Ah battery system, the BM11098 combines quiet electric travel with an impressive 500kg rated load capacity. Its large 236.45L bucket provides substantially more volume than smaller 200–300kg electric wheelbarrows.
A dedicated Hydraulic Power Unit tips the bucket for easier unloading, while the electromagnetic brake, three selectable forward speeds and reverse drive provide controlled operation around the worksite.
