An innovative remote control dumper has been developed and launched by two British entrepreneurs.

The 1479 Shannon Solo, mini hi-tip dumper has been developed to address health and safety risks found in work places where plant hire equipment is used. It is able to operate remotely up to a distance of 100m without an operator close to it, thus redcuing the risks to anyone using it.

Because the Shannon Solo is operated by a remote control, it is safe to be used in hazardous areas, considerably reducing the number of times a person is exposed to danger. It can be used in quarries or demolition sites where there is a threat of falling debris; near deep water where people would normally be at risk, or in other dangerous areas. It can also be used in narrow access, busy highways and unstable ground.

The Solo can lift up to 500kg, has a scissor lift action and is capable of loading a standard skip. Options include a post rammer and dozer blade.
