LITTLE HAY'WOOD Transport, of Burton-on-Trent, has introduced a fifth Ampliroll vehicle-handling system into its fleet.
The Ampliroll units were specially modified by Hearncrest Boughton at its Amersham works to handle all the containers used by Little Haywood Transport.
Hearncrest Boughton has simplified maintenance on all four of its Ampliroll units supplied, by fitting hydraulic pipes and valves which are all the same size and length enabling the driver to handle any repair quickly.
On the Ampliroll system all control operations are by remote control within the cab, creating, says Boughton, a far better working condition for drivers. The four Ampliroll vehicle handling units supplied to Little Haywood Transport have been fitted to 24.4-tonne (24-ton) Leyland Reiver chassis with 5.2m (205in) wheelbase.
