READ WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT RHINO GRANDE
HANDY FOR ALL SORTS OF THINGS
“Rhino Grande’s new Mini Loader Dumper comes in handy for all sorts of things,” says Don Horton, 74 year old property owner in Kenthurst, Sydney’s leafy northwest.
“Recently, I built a twenty meter retaining wall and then had to backfill it with tons of soil and rock. I used the Loader to single-handedly scoop, fill, lift, carry – over rocky terrain, and dump. It’s got treads rather than wheels which increases traction and spreads the load but what I really love is the auto-loading feature. I don’t think I picked up a shovel once, and no wheelbarrows either. The whole job was done in a fraction of the time should I’ve done it the old fashioned way.
“I recommend the RG-800 Mini Auto-Loader. I think it would be great for landscaping, farming, demolitions – all sorts of things. It carries 800kg and has a Briggs & Stratton engine and Hydro-Gear hydraulics so reliability’s good. If the neighbours didn’t keep borrowing it, I’d get even more done around the place.”

BEST VALUE MINI DUMPER ON THE MARKET
“We moved 250 tons of soil and rock in 2 days using 3 mini dumpers and an excavator and didn’t even break a sweat.
“Before Vicon International released the RG-800 Mini Dumper I would have just used more men and wheelbarrows. It would of taken four times as long and cost more but we wouldn’t have had any choice; nothing bigger would fit down the side of the newly built house in Willoughby, Sydney.
“One worker can move tons of soil a day without getting tired. The BY-800 does all the work. It’s different to other mini dumpers because it self-loads and unloads. It’s got a built-in hydraulic shovel in front and a scissor lift that can lift the bucket up 1.5m and tip the load into a skip bin or the back of a truck or Ute.
“We use the RG-800 wherever we can. You don’t have to be as careful as you do with a Bobcat or excavator so jobs go faster. And there aren’t the access or transportation issues. It can carry, lift and dump up to 800kg and is less than a meter wide. It’s powered by a Briggs & Stratton engine so it’s powerful and reliable. No special training is required; it’s easy to use.
“I recommend the RG-800 Mini-dumper. It’s a very good tool for landscaping especially if you need to move volumes of rock and soil. Combine it with a small excavator and you’ll multiply work efficiency and job profit.”
