Aardvark equipment Tractor Front Weight Box - 15mm steel plate construction.
The Aardvark Equipment Tractor Front Weight Box mounts on a cat II/III front tractor linkage to provide a ballast counter balance when a tractor is being used either with an Aardvark Equipment rear linkage mounted R.W.T. series wheel trencher (when in transport/out of work/lifted mode) or an Aardvark Equipment draw bar mounted M.T.G.C. series gravel cart.
In bare form it weights around 500Kg & is 1500mm wide x 500mm high x 675mm deep in the main box area. The center section is open topped, 875mm wide x 650mm deep x 475mm high & can carry additional ballast weight in increments of anything up to 1000Kg (1,500Kg total box mass), or spare digging segments/carbides for trencher operational wear parts maintenance - The floor panel has drainage points in each corner. The two blue left & right side panels are padlocked & can be opened to drop down, for accommodating more valuable parts or tools, each has an upper & lower shelf & can carry P.T.O. shafts, buckets of trench cutting carbides & trenching machine tool kits, keeping them safe & dry.
There is also a central cut out behind the front plate, to house a pipe/cable reel assembly (60mm x 60mm) & a front draw bar facility for shunting miscellaneous machinery or to be used as a "tie down" point during low loader transport.
