Thwaites Dumper - which model have I got?

[rock mover]

Chris,
How many tipping rams on the bucket ?
Also why does the bucket appear to come back far enough to touch the steering column ?

I think it's one ram but I am away until after Easter now so can't check. Yes the bucket comes down against the steering column and even came with a lump of wood to stop it resting hard against the steering column, I think it is simply the bucket is bent and bows out at the back.

The two ton machine has one tipping ram, least our does.
